My mother taught public school, went to Harvard and then got her masters there and taught fifth and sixth grade in a public school. My dad had a more working-class lifestyle. He didnt go to college. He was an auto mechanic and a bartender and a janitor at Harvard. – Ben Affleck
A friend of my moms was a casting director so, really as kind of a lark, I had a couple of acting jobs that had just enough exposure to give me the option to continue if I wanted to. I followed through with it. – Ben Affleck
