This young man is world-famous now. His name is not Harry Potter but Daniel Jacob Radcliffe. He lives in London where he was born on July 23, 1989. Dan is an only child. His father, a literary agent, now manages his career, while his mother is a casting agent. He has two border terrier dogs, Binka and Nugget. The young actor is a music fan and he plays the bass guitar. No wonder his favourite gadget is his ipod!
Dan is not very tall, only 1m67, but he is slim and sporty. He loves soccer and supports the Fulham football team. He also enjoys Formula One racing, cricket and gymnastics.
He has dark brown straight hair, grey blue eyes that periodically change to green, irresistible dimples and a lovely smile. No, he doesn �t wear glasses in real life, only when he plays Harry Potter. How many Harry Potter movies have you seen? To find out more, visit his official website at http://www.danradcliffe.com/.
