Matthew McConaughey was born in Uvalde, Texas, but grew up
in Longview, Texas where he graduated from the local High School (1988).
Showing little interest in his father's oil business, which his two brothers
later joined, Matthew was longing for a change of scenery, and spent a year in
Australia, washing dishes and shoveling chicken manure. Back to the States, he
attended the University of Texas in Austin, originally wishing to be a lawyer.
But, when he discovered an inspirational Og Mandino book "The Greatest
Salesman in the World" before one of his final exams, he suddenly knew he
had to change his major from law to film.
