==Early life==
Christopher George was born in Royal Oak, Michigan, on February 25, 1931, the son of Greek immigrants John and Vaseleke George.〔Cumberland Evening Times, 'TV Cameos: Chris George, Career Rolls Into High Gear On Video,' by Ed Misurell, p. 9, November 12, 1966.〕 John George was born in Thebes, Greece and was a veteran of World War I,〔Motion Picture, 'Don't Cross Chris,' by Nikos George, p. 64, May 1967.〕 and Vaseleke was born in Athens.〔Photoplay, 'Chris George: I Married My Best Friend,' by Milburn Smith, p. 38, November 1967.〕
Christopher George could not speak English until he was six years old, because his family only spoke Greek at home.〔Boxoffice Magazine, 'Former Miamian Chris George has been at the Four Ambassadors Hotel in Miami to Plug his latest Film,' p. SE7, March 12, 1973.〕 His father was a traveling salesman during his childhood. Christopher George accompanied his father on selling trips to cities such as Akron, New York City, Chicago, St. Louis, Memphis, and Detroit.〔Winona Daily News, 'TV Mailbag' by Steven H. Scheuer, p. 7, March 26, 1967.〕 From Michigan, the family moved to Mountain Lakes, New Jersey.〔TV Radio Mirror Magazine, article p. 54, by Evelyn Fern, August 1967.〕 Once George began learning to speak English, his father enrolled him in Greek school in addition to his regular school so that he would not forget the Greek language.〔Screenland, 'Christopher George of Rat Patrol: Why His Wife Thinks He's Perfectly Cast!' by James Gregory, p. 61, March 1967.〕 That was where George first got interested in acting; at Greek school they performed Greek plays and recited Greek poetry.〔 When George was 14, he and his family moved to Miami, Florida.〔 As a child, George lived in the Coconut Grove section of Miami and attended Shenandoah Elementary School and Miami Senior High School.〔 In school, George played soccer, football and baseball and ran track.〔 While in Florida, he used to hunt for alligators in the Everglades.〔 After obtaining his driver's license, Chris worked for his father, driving trucks between Miami and other cities along the Eastern seaboard.〔Bridgeport Sunday Post, 'TV Mailbag', p. C-18, March 26, 1967.〕
When he was young, Christopher George felt bound to enter the Greek Orthodox Church and his family prepared him for it; his brother Nick said that all through his childhood, Christopher was an altar boy and a choir boy and that his parents and the priest were trying to groom him to become a priest.〔TV Guide Magazine, 'Go to the Heart of Danger,' by Edith Efron, pp. 10-12, May 20, 1967.〕 He served as an altar boy at St. Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Miami.〔T.V. Picture Life, 'Father, I want to become a priest', by Paul Denis, p. 30, March 1967.〕
