Astrology Mundo » What Time Was Orson Welles Really Born?
October 11th, 2008 @ 6:46 pm by Astrology Mundo
I’ve long been fascinated by actor/director Orson Welles. Right now, I’m reading a wonderful biography of him published in 1995, Orson Welles: The Road to Xanadu, by Simon Callow.
Like many epicurians, Welles was born under the sign of Taurus, the same sign as William Randolph Hearst, the media mogul who was the inspiration for Welles’ epic film Citizen Kane.
Here’s what’s interesting. Many astrology Web sites, including Astrotheme of France, show Welles as being born at 7 a.m. on May 6, 1915 in Kenosha, Wis.
That’s not the time that Callow reports. According to the Welles biographer, journalists were constantly asking to see Welles’ birth certificate because they wanted to prove that he was 5 to 10 years older than the wunderkind said he was.
