Certification - September 2008 - (Page 26) IT CULTURE The Title Is Information Officer… Chief Information Officer JOhN BOSTICK Legendary James Bond actor Sean Connery managed to avoid typecasting in hollywood. Senior IT executives can take a few hints from him. Say the name Sean Connery, and virtually everyone will think of his most famous line: “The name is Bond, James Bond.” Connery first appeared in 1962 as the character from Ian Fleming’s spy novels. Though five other actors have played Bond during the past 45 years, it is Connery we think of when we hear the famous musical riff from every film’s opening sequence. In fact, the actor is the standard against which all other would-be Bonds — perhaps even all other secret-agent characters — are measured. After all, does the name George Lazenby mean anything to you? Yet, of the dozens of nominations and awards recognizing Connery’s acting prowess, none were for his role as James Bond. He starred in dozens of films The Real Life of a Fictional Spy 1930: Born Aug. 25 in a working-class neighborhood of Edinburgh, Scotland. 1946: Enlisted in the Royal Navy and got two tattoos: one that reads “Mum and Dad,” the other “Scotland Forever.” 1954: Makes his film debut, an uncredited appearance in the British romantic comedy “Lilacs in the Spring.” 1962: First utters the famous line “Bond, James Bond” in “Dr. No.” 1950: Entered the Mr. Universe contest and finished third in the tall man’s division (center, in white). 1963: His favorite Bond film, “From Russia With Love,” opens. 26 CERTIFICATION MAGAZINE September 2008 http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000125/ http://www.ianflemingcentre.com/Default.aspx?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048294/ http://maps.google.com/maps?q=map of edinburgh scotland&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&resnum=1&ct=title http://www.royal-navy.mod.uk/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0055928/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057076/ http://www.pathguy.com/lectures/seanconnery1.jpg http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057076/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0057076/
