What The Children Of Old Hollywood Look Like Today
Gregory Peck made moviegoers swoon for decades with roles in To Kill a Mockingbird (1962), Roman Holiday (1953), and Cape Fear (both the 1962 original and the 1991 remake). He had three sons—Jonathan, Stephen, and Carey Paul—with first wife Greta Kukkonen, and a son, Anthony, and a daughter, Cecilia, with his next wife, French journalist Veronique Passani.
Anthony, a screenwriter and actor (pictured with Cecilia) landed small roles in the 1980s and '90s, and Cecilia became an Emmy-nominated filmmaker who made a documentary about her father called A Conversation with Gregory Peck.
According to LinkedIn, Stephen is an advocate for veteran's rights, and Carey Paul ran for congress in the '70s and later became a "pioneer of empowering after-school programs such as the Take Action Student leadership campaign," according to the Peck family website. Jonathan died of a suspected suicide in 1975.
In 2016, Cecilia honored her father on what would have been his 100th birthday, saying, "He was very hands on!... He drove us to school on his way to work, he was very involved in our school life, in all parental decisions and discipline, and in all of our activities... He was so much more more tolerant, intelligent, compassionate and loving than one could ever imagine."
At the same event, Anthony added, "My father had great reserves of patience and empathy. There was little, if anything, that he did not understand about me, about people, about human nature. He brought all that wisdom and humanity, all his love to raising us. That was my example and that is what I try to do with my own son."
