Sorry for the abruptness of the question but I'm pressed for time :P
Anyway:
A certain gentleman, born in 1932 in some part of Egypt as a Melkite Greek Catholic. He took to acting in 1953 and became quite a successful actor in his time.
He was also known for something else.
Id the man and what the other thing was.
Answer:
Man - Omar Sharif
Other thing - Contact Bridge
Sharif once ranked among the world's best known contact players, forming the "Omar Sharif Bridge Circus" in 1967 which toured the world, competing against such powerhouse teams as Blue Team and Dallas Aces, at a time when barnstorming bridge teams were very popular. With Charles Goren, Sharif co-wrote a syndicated newspaper bridge column for the Chicago Tribune for several years, but has mostly turned over the writing of the column to Tannah Hirsch, whose name appears on the byline with Sharif to this day.
