		The son of Cuba Gooding, lead singer for the '70s pop group the Main Ingredient, he was born in the Bronx on January 2, 1968, but moved to Los Angeles after his father's group had a hit single with "Everybody Plays the Fool" in 1972.
		The subsequently tumultuous nature of Gooding Jr.'s upbringing did not deter him from achievement: During his teens, he attended four different high schools but managed to become class president of three of them.
		Unfortunately, save for a few exceptions like A Few Good Men (1992), most of the films were not well regarded, and the actor continued to work in relative obscurity.

	Cuba Gooding Jr Biography :: Hollywood.com
		A gregarious actor with a smile that lights up the screen, Cuba Gooding Jr experienced the highs and lows of show business growing up as the son of his famous singer father.
		The eager, infectious enthusiasm that permeated Gooding's early roles had by now grown tiresome, and the actor's performances were typically overloaded with mugging and grandstanding that failed to enhance the already dubious quality of the material he was choosing.
		After landing in the high-powered supporting cast of the blockbuster court-martial drama "A Few Good Men" (1992), Gooding stumbled as the star of that year's "Rocky" wannabe "Gladiator" (1992) and as the mute sidekick of Paul Hogan in "Lightning Jack" (1994, in a role that purportedly was intended for a dog).
