One
of

directors
of
our
time
is
Stephen
Spielberg.
He
was
born
in
Cincinnati
on
18
December,
1946.
His
father
was
an
electric
engineer
and
his
mother
was
a
performing
pianist.
His
sister,
Anne
Spielberg,
became
a
screenwriter
who
wrote
the
stories
for
many
famous
films.
Stephen
had
always
wanted
to
be
a
director
ever
since
he
was
a
young
boy.
When
he
was
just
13
years
old,
he
made
a
40-minute
film.
It
won
a
local
competition.
Three
years
later,
he
produced
a
film
called
Firelight,
which
made
one
hundred
dollars'
profit
at
the
cinema
in
his
hometown.
Many
of
the
ideas
from
this
film
were
later
used
for
one
of
his
most
famous
films
called
Close
Encounters
of
the
Third
Kind.
When
he
was
18
years
old,
he
wanted
to
go
to
film
school
so
that
he
could
improve
his
skills
and
become
an
even
better
director.
Unluckily,
he
was
unsuccessful
in
getting
a
place
at
this
school
so
he
went
to
a
university
in
California
to
study
English.
Even
though
he
had
failed
to
get
into
the
school
he
wanted
to
go
to,
he
didn't
let
this
stop
him
following
his
dream
to
become
a
great
director.
Stephen
Spielberg
has
directed
many
films
since
his
first
major
film
in
1976.
He
now
owns
many
different
businesses,
most
of
which
are
involved
in
the
film
industry.
