Boswell George

American contestant on a TV game show called Big Brother, a show set in "real time." It is not scripted and is not intended for younger audiences as the language and situations have the spontaneity of real life. Ten young adults, strangers to each other, were selected to live for three months in a closed environment in order to observe their interaction, entering their Big Brother house on 7/04/2000. After voting one of their housemates off every week, the last remaining contestant wins $500,000 on 9/30/2000. George is a 41-year-old Roofing Contractor, 5 8", 205 lbs. He is the eldest male of the Big Brother House Guests. He runs his own roofing company, "Raincoat Roofing." He has been married for 22 years to the mother of his three children, ages 7 to 17. George spends much of his leisure time volunteering for Rockfords Jefferson High School Fans Association. He likes to relax at two of his towns Italian eateries - Doms Pizzeria and Linos. For a laugh, George likes the offbeat style of John Belushi and Dan Akroyd, ranking "The Blues Brothers" as his all-time favorite movie. When its time for relaxing on a bigger scale, George prefers the scenic countryside and waterways of Michigans Upper Peninsula for his vacations. A typical middle-American, George playfully dyed his hair green during the house joke-time, but the public was not amused, and voted him the 11th week, on 9/20/2000. His housemates complained that he was so cheerful all the time that he got on their nerves. The eldest of three kids of a machinist and a factory worker, George met Teresa on his job after high school, delivering merchandise. They married in 1978 and he began his own business in 1982. When he saw the ad in the paper for Big Brother contestants in 4/2000, he answered it as a lark. Falling short of the final prize, he walked away with $4,550 for his 79 days in the house. He landed a theatrical agent and appeared as the Clown King in an Ice Show and made an appearance at a Beef-a-Roni eatery on 10/23/2000. Link to Wikipedia biography Read less
