Mr. Mystery Guest? Are you still there? - RIP Mr Alan Rickman -







 


To start the new year on such a bad note is never good , to say good bye to yet another great actor such as Alan Rickman is gut wrenching. He charmed us all with such greats as Sheriff George of Nottingham ( robin hood ) or the incredible Hans Gruber (Die Hard ) and of course Severus Snape from Harry Potter. this is an Actor that charmed us in to hating and loving the characters he brought to life. a true thespian of English actors.

 Alan Rickman was born on a council estate in Acton, West London, to Margaret Doreen Rose (Bartlett) and Bernard Rickman, who worked at a factory. He has English, Irish, and Welsh ancestry. Alan has an older brother David, a younger brother Michael and a younger sister Sheila. When Alan was 8 years old, his father died. He attended Latymer Upper School on a scholarship. He studied Graphic Design at Chelsea College of Art and Design, where he met Rima Horton, who would later become his life partner. After three years at Chelsea College, Rickman did graduate studies at the Royal College of Art. He opened a successful graphics design business, Graphiti, with friends and ran it for several years before his love of theatre led him to seek an audition with the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA). At the relatively late age of 26, Rickman received a scholarship to RADA, which started a professional acting career that has lasted nearly 40 years, with no signs of stopping, a career which has spanned stage, screen and television and has lapped over into directing, as well.






So with this I'll say Rest in Peace Mr Alan Rickman.
