Age: 50

He was the youngest of six children and raised in a close-knit family in Philadelphia. His mother, Ruth Hilda, taught elementary school and was a liberal activist. His father, Edmund Bacon, was a respected urban planner. Kevin knew that he wanted to be an actor by age 13. He left home four years later to pursue a theater career in New York, where he was one of the youngest students ever admitted to the Circle in the Square Theater School.
He has been married to actress Kyra Sedgwick since September 4, 1988. They were introduced on the set of the PBS version of Landford Wilsons play Lemon Sky and they were married a year later on their farm in Connecticut. They have two children, Travis Bacon (born June23, 1989 in Los Angeles, California) and Sosie Ruth Bacon (born March 15, 1992). Kevin's son, Travis Bacon currently plays in the 4-member rock-punk-funk band Idiot Box. They live on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. The two insist that neither work on separate projects at the same time. In 1994, when Kevin was shooting The River Wild, he was accompanied at the set by his family. He prioritizes his relationship with his children and his wife, something his father never did for him.
In 1995 he was chosen by Empire magazine as one of the 100 Sexiest Stars in film history. He was number 61. He was the first choice for the Charlie Sheen part in Being John Malkovich in 1999. He has never lived in Hollywood or Los Angeles. He received the 2,238th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in front of the Ivar/Cinespace Nightclubs on September 30, 2003.
