Samuel Pack Elliott was born August 9, 1944, at the Sutter Memorial Hospital in Sacramento, California, [1] [2] the son of Glynn Mamie (née Sparks), a Texas state diving champion in high school and later a physical-training instructor and high-school teacher, and Henry Nelson Elliott, who worked as a predator-control specialist for the Department of the Interior. [3] [4] His parents were originally from El Paso, Texas, and Elliott has an ancestor who served as a surgeon at the Battle of San Jacinto. [5] [6] [7] He moved from California to Portland, Oregon, with his family when he was 13 years old. [8] [9]

Elliott spent his teenage years living in northeast Portland, [8] and graduated from David Douglas High School in 1962. [9] After graduating from high school, Elliott attended college at the University of Oregon as an English and psychology major [10] for two terms before dropping out. [3] He returned to Portland and attended Clark College in nearby Vancouver, Washington, where he completed a two-year program and was cast as Big Jule in a stage production of Guys and Dolls . [8] The Vancouver Columbian newspaper suggested that Elliott should be a professional actor. After his graduation from Clark in 1965, Elliott re-enrolled at the University of Oregon and pledged at the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. [3] He dropped out again after his father died of a heart attack. [3]

In the late 1960s, Elliott relocated to Los Angeles to pursue a career in acting, which his father had dissuaded him from doing, instead urging him to obtain a college degree. [3] "He gave me that proverbial line, 'You've got a snowball's chance in hell of having a career in (Hollywood),'" Elliott recalled. "He was a realist, my dad. He was a hard worker. He had a work ethic that I've fashioned mine after, and I thank him for that every day." [3] Elliott worked in construction while studying acting and served in the California Air National Guard's 146th Airlift Wing (the Hollywood Guard) at Van Nuys Airport before the unit moved to Channel Islands Air National Guard Station. [11]
