Early-life: Thomas William Selleck was born in Detroit, Michigan on January 29, 1945 to Martha and Robert. His family moved to Sherman Oaks, California during his childhood. A talented athlete, Tom attended the University of Southern California on a basketball scholarship. He went on to study acting at the Beverly Hills Playhouse and was serving as a soldier in the California National Guard when he was activated for the Watts riots in Los Angeles in 1965.

Career: Selleck won small parts in films and TV shows during the 1970s until his big break came in 1979 when he was cast in the lead role in detective series Magnum, PI. The popular series earned him an Emmy and a Golden Globe and it ran for eight seasons, clocking up 162 editions. He went on to star alongside Ted Danson and Steve Guttenberg in the box-office smash Three Men and a Baby (1987), had a recurring role in the sitcom Friends during the 1990s and since 2005, he has played lawman Jesse Stone in a series of TV movies based on novels by Robert B Parker. Since 2010, he has played Frank Reagan in police drama Blue Bloods.

Quote: 'I think of myself as an actor first, not a sex symbol.'

Trivia: Selleck turned down the role of Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark to honour the contract he had just signed for Magnum, PI.
