Early life and education
Damon was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the second son of
stockbroker Kent Telfer Damon and Nancy Carlsson-Paige, an early
childhood education professor at Lesley University.[6][7][8] His
father had English and Scottish ancestry, and his mother is of
five-eighths Finnish and three-eighths Swedish descent (his mother's
family surname had been changed from the Finnish "Pajari" to
"Paige").[9][10][11] Damon and his family moved to Newton for two
years. His parents divorced when he was two years old, and Damon and
his brother returned with their mother to Cambridge,[7][12] where they
lived in a six-family communal house.[13][14] His brother Kyle is now
an accomplished sculptor and artist.[7][15]
As a lonely teenager, Damon has said that he felt that he did not
belong.[13] Due to his mother's "by the book"[13] approach to
child-rearing, he had a hard time defining a self identity.[13] He
attended Cambridge Alternative School (now Graham and Parks) and then
Cambridge Rindge and Latin School, where he was a good student.[16]
Damon performed as an actor in several high school theater
productions.[7] He credited his drama teacher, Gerry Speca, as an
important artistic influence, though Ben Affleck,[16] his good friend
and schoolmate,[17] got the "biggest roles and longest
speeches".[16][nb 2]
Damon attended Harvard University, where he was a resident of Lowell
House and a member of the class of 1992, but left before receiving his
degree to take a lead role in the film Geronimo: An American Legend.
While at Harvard, he wrote an early treatment of the screenplay for
Good Will Hunting

Good Will Hunting as an exercise for an English class. Damon was a
member of the Delphic Club, one of the University's select Final
Clubs. In 2013, he was awarded the Harvard Arts Medal.[19] Damon
received an
Academy Award

Academy Award for the screenplay of
Good Will Hunting

Good Will Hunting in
1998.[20]
Acting career
Early years: 1988–1996
Damon entered Harvard in 1988,[21][nb 3] where he appeared in student
theater plays, such as
Burn This

Burn This and A... My Name is Alice.[23][24]
Later, he made his film debut at the age of 18, with a single line of
dialogue in the romantic comedy Mystic Pizza.[25] As a student at
Harvard, he acted in small roles such as in the TNT original film
Rising Son and the ensemble prep-school drama School Ties.[26] He left
the university in 1992, a semester - 12 credits - shy of completion of
his
Bachelor of Arts in English to feature in Geronimo: An American
Legend[23][27] in Los Angeles, erroneously expecting the movie to
become a big success.[23][nb 4] Damon next appeared as an
opiate-addicted soldier in 1996's Courage Under Fire, for which he
lost 40 pounds (18 kg) in 100 days[25][29] on a
self-prescribed diet and fitness regimen.
Courage Under Fire

Courage Under Fire gained
him critical notice, when
The Washington Post

The Washington Post labeled his performance
"impressive".[30]

During the early 1990s, Damon and Affleck wrote Good Will Hunting
(1997), a screenplay about a young mathematics genius, an extension of
a screenplay he wrote for an assignment at Harvard, having integrated
advice from director Rob Reiner, screenwriter William Goldman, and
writer/director Kevin Smith.[31] It received nine Academy Awards
nominations, earning Damon and Affleck Oscars[32][33] and Golden
Globes for Best Screenplay.[34] Damon was nominated for an Academy
Award for Best Actor for the same film, which netted an Oscar for Best
Supporting Actor for co-star Robin Williams.[32] He and Affleck were
each paid salaries of $600,000, while the film grossed over
$225 million at the worldwide box office.[35][36] The two later
parodied their roles from the film in Kevin Smith's 2001 movie Jay and
Silent Bob Strike Back.[37]
Also in 1997, Damon was the lead in the critically acclaimed drama,
The Rainmaker, where he was recognized by the
Los Angeles Times

Los Angeles Times as "a
talented young actor on the brink of stardom."[38] After meeting Damon
on the set of Good Will Hunting, director
Steven Spielberg

Steven Spielberg cast him as
the titular character in the 1998
World War II

World War II film Saving Private
Ryan.[39] He co-starred with

Then he portrayed Patricia Highsmith's antihero
Tom Ripley

Tom Ripley in The
Talented Mr. Ripley (1999),[25] in which "Damon outstandingly conveys
his character's slide from innocent enthusiasm into cold calculation",
according to Variety magazine.[40] He played a fallen angel who
discusses pop culture as intellectual subject matter with Affleck in
Dogma (1999).[41]
Damon's attempts at essaying leading characters in romantic dramas
such as 2000's All the Pretty Horses and The Legend of Bagger Vance
were commercially and critically unsuccessful.[35] Variety said of his
work in All the Pretty Horses: "[Damon] just doesn't quite seem like a
young man who's spent his life amidst the dust and dung of a Texas
cattle ranch. Nor does he strike any sparks with [Penelope] Cruz."[42]
He was similarly deemed "uncomfortable being the center" of Robert
Redford's The Legend of Bagger Vance.[43]
Hollywood star: 2001–2007
Damon at Incirlik, 2001
From 2001 to 2007, Damon gained wider international recognition as

alongside
Heath Ledger

Heath Ledger in Terry Gilliam's fantasy adventure The
Brothers Grimm (2005), which was a critically panned commercial
failure;[35]
The Washington Post

The Washington Post concluded, "Damon, constantly
flashing his newscaster's teeth and flaunting a fake, 'Masterpiece
Theatre' dialect, comes across like someone who got lost on the way to
an audition for a high school production of The Pirates of
Penzance."[48] Later that year, he appeared as an energy analyst in
Syriana.[49]
In 2006, Damon joined

work in the two films,
Manohla Dargis of
The New York Times

The New York Times wrote that
Damon has the unique "ability to recede into a film while also being
fully present, a recessed intensity, that distinguishes how he holds
the screen."[50]
The Departed received critical acclaim and won the
Academy Award

Academy Award for Best Picture.[51][nb 5]
