A Boston boy through and through. Ben Affleck has been a Hollywood A-lister for more than two decades, but he's never forgotten his New England roots (or his love of Dunkin' coffee). Born in Berkeley, California, the avid Red Sox fan moved to Massachusetts with his family when he was just 3 years old. He got his first professional acting gig at 7, and by the time he was in high school, he was ready to start pursuing it as a career along with his friend and fellow student Matt Damon. "Before Matt, I was by myself," the Deep Water star told Parade in 2007.
