Early Life

Sam Raimi was born Samuel Marshall Raimi on October 23, 1959, in Royal Oak, Michigan. He grew up in a Conservative Jewish household with mother Celia, father Leonard, sister Andrea, and brothers Ted, Ivan, and Sander. Sadly, Sander drowned at the age of 15, and Sam has said that his brother's death has "colored everything he's done for the rest of his life." Sander was the person who first introduced Sam to "Spider-Man," leading to Raimi's love of comics. Sam's parents were merchants, and Ted and Ivan both went into the entertainment industry, with Ted becoming an actor and Ivan becoming a screenwriter (as well as a physician). Ted has appeared in several of Sam's films, including the "Evil Dead" trilogy, and Ivan co-wrote "Darkman," "The Nutt House," "Army of Darkness," "Spider-Man 3," and "Drag Me to Hell" and co-created "Spy Game" and "Ash vs Evil Dead" with Sam. Raimi attended Groves High School, then he spent three semesters studying English at Michigan State University before dropping out to make "The Evil Dead."
