Jim Belushi Aims High and Embraces Life on the Farm

The world knows him as an actor and musician, but now Jim Belushi is getting his hands dirty on his forward-thinking Oregon farm.

The Young James Belushi

Jim’s initial stay in Chicago wasn’t long, but the city has a big place in his heart.

James ‘Jim’ Belushi has come a long way from the gritty streets of Chicago where he was born on June 15, 1954, to his place in life now as a musician, actor and comedian with an ongoing successful career that spans four decades.

Despite his parents picking up the Belushi clan that consisted of four kids (including Jim’s older brother, actor and comedian John) and moving them to Wheaton, Illinois, Chicago would always play a major part in Jim’s life.
