Arkansas: Billy Bob Thornton

Billy Bob Thornton moved around a lot as a kid, but a large portion of his early life was spent in Hot Springs, Arkansas. His grandmother raised him in a tiny, two-bedroom cabin with no electricity or indoor plumbing. When he was 37, he co-wrote and starred in the 1992 film One False Move, and the rest is history!
