Born May 14, 1944 in Modesto, California, Lucas is best known for the “Star Wars” and “Indiana Jones” series. But, his first film, “THX-1138,” flopped when it came out in 1971. It was a full-length version of a short film he made while a student at the University of Southern California. He redeemed himself, however, with a decidedly home-themed movie, “American Graffiti,” in 1973, and has enjoyed one success after another since.
