History


In our last episode, we discussed a man who was a walking contradiction: Doc Holliday. This contradiction quote was first used in the 1970’s, appearing famously in Martin Scorcese’s 1976 film Taxi Driver. Welcome to Brief Biographies of Famous People! This is your host, Ajay. For episode 8 of this podcast, we will be discussing the life of Martin Scorcese: Acclaimed Filmmaker and notorious director. Before we start, I encourage all our listeners, to subscribe, share with friends and family, and leave a review as it immensely helps in the growth of our show and the ability to produce new content on time. On November 17th of 1942, Martin Scorcese was born. His parents, Charles and Catherine, were both Italian actors in the film industry. The family was devoutly Catholic, which influenced Martin’s later career as a film director. Growing up, Martin often suffered from asthma and was rarely able to participate in sports and school. As such, he was usually confined to his home, where his family would bring him movies to watch. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ajay-sheena/message
