Editing Kevin Bacon (section)

== Legacy ==

Kevin Bacon's ongoing career continues adding film, television, and stage work to a resume spanning over forty years and one hundred films. His marriage to actress Kyra Sedgwick since 1988 represents unusual Hollywood longevity, their partnership both personal and occasionally professional. His band, The Bacon Brothers, with his brother Michael, demonstrates creative interests extending beyond acting. His Philadelphia childhood, shaped by a family whose civic engagement and achievement distinguished them, provided foundation for a career that success has not fundamentally altered. Bacon represents what Philadelphia's intellectual and civic elite could produce in entertainment, his approach to craft reflecting seriousness that his origins instilled.<ref name="martin"/>
