Pierce Brosnan Free Screensaver. Photos slideshow. Pierce Brosnan screensaver. This free screensaver contains many pictures of Pierce Brosnan. He was born Pierce Brendan Brosnan on the 16th of May, 1953, in Navan, County Meath. Popularly known as An Uaimh, it s about 30 miles north-west of Dublin, just inland from Drogheda. His father, Thomas, was a carpenter who left mother Mary (known as May) before Pierce was a year old. Needing a career to support her son, May travelled to London to train as a nurse, leaving young Pierce with her parents, Philip and Kathleen Smith. Sadly, when he was 6, both grandparents died, so he was moved on to stay with relatives. He recalls spending lots of time in his aunt s pub, feeling lonely and abandoned. But maybe that s where the acting comes from , he says from spending so much time alone with your thoughts . Though he excelled in English and art, by 16 Pierce had had enough. Now wearing the long hair and goatee beard the times demanded (and wondering whether he was gay), in 1969 he began training to be a commercial artist in a photographic studio where clients included both Harrods and Selfridges. He spent his time watering spider plants and learning how to draw 3-piece suites for the Evening Standard . Having become a US citizen in 2004, Pierce Brosnan said he would remain an Irish citizen, too. This is an accurate reflection of his current working life, where he operates as a Hollywood star and yet films in his homeland whenever he can. Sometimes, as with Laws Of Attraction, he combines the two, bringing Hollywood to Ireland. Yet his greatest fame, and his OBE, have come from playing the greatest Englishman who never lived. It s an amazing story - long may it continue. This screensaver is free, and contains no spyware or virus. It was fully tested by our team before making it available.
