Early life

Vaughn was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. [1] [3] His mother, Sharon Eileen ( née DePalmo), [4] is a real estate agent and stockbroker, who was once ranked one of the top U.S. money managers by Bloomberg Wealth Manager magazine. His father, Vernon Lindsay Vaughn, worked as a salesman for a toy company. [5] Vincent's Catholic mother and Protestant father [6] raised him in both the Protestant and Catholic faiths. [7] He has Italian, Irish, English, Lebanese, and German ancestry. [8]

Vaughn lived in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, until he was eight years old. [9] After moving to Lake Forest, he graduated from Lake Forest High School in 1988 where he played football and baseball and wrestled, although he has called himself "unathletic" and "very average" at high school sports. At a young age, he had been introduced to musical theater and, in 1987, decided to become an actor. He has credited his mother as the inspiration for his career, saying, "I saw her overcome stuff, and I thought if you worked hard at something you'd give yourself a chance". [10]

In 1988, Vaughn was cast in a Chevrolet commercial and subsequently moved to Hollywood. He appeared in the 1989 season of the television series China Beach and in three CBS Schoolbreak Specials in 1990. His first film role was 1993's Rudy as Notre Dame football tailback Jamie O'Hara. He struck up a friendship with Jon Favreau, who was also a first-time actor. Two years later, he was cast in a lead role in a proposed revival of 77 Sunset Strip that was to air on the fledgling WB Television Network, but the project ceased development after initial testing. Vaughn did not gain wider success until his role in 1996's Swingers with Favreau.

Afterward, Steven Spielberg cast Vaughn as Nick Van Owen in the 1997 blockbuster The Lost World: Jurassic Park , which gave him increased exposure. He followed that up with the lead role in The Locusts the same year. In 1998, he starred in the critically acclaimed drama Return to Paradise with Anne Heche, and starred in Clay Pigeons with Janeane Garofalo and Joaquin Phoenix.
