== Early life ==
Kline was born in St. Louis, Missouri, the son of Margaret Agnes "Peggy" (née Kirk; 1918-2000)〔(Margaret Kirk Kline's burial entry at findagrave.com )〕 and Robert Joseph Kline.〔name="Robert"/> His father was a classical music lover and an amateur opera singer who owned and operated The Record Bar, a record store in St. Louis that opened in the early 1940s, and sold toys during the 1960s and 1970s; his father's family also owned Kline's Inc., a department store chain. Kline has described his mother as the "dramatic theatrical character in our family."〔 〕 Kline's father was Jewish, from a family that had emigrated from Germany; Kline's mother was of Irish descent, the daughter of an emigrant from County Louth.〔
Kline was raised in his mother's Catholic religion (his father had become an agnostic).〔http://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1876&dat=19830211&id=-FEsAAAAIBAJ&sjid=Vc4EAAAAIBAJ&pg=5848,2227600〕 He has three siblings, Alex, Christopher, and Kate.〔 He graduated from the Catholic Saint Louis Priory School in 1965; in 1997, the school named its new auditorium the Kevin Kline Theater, and Kline did a benefit performance of selections from Shakespeare at the dedication. He attended Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana, where he began as an aspiring classical pianist. After joining the on-campus theater group "Vest Pocket Players" as an undergraduate, he fell in love with the theater and switched to acting, graduating from IU in 1970.〔
