It is a reality that the world of film and television has a large audience that is loyal to its content around the world. Although professionals dedicated to it achieve great popularity, the truth is that it is not easy to succeed in the interpretation. One of the most prominent names in this regard is Barbra Streisand. Born in Brooklyn, New York, on April 24, 1942, she is an American actress, singer, composer, producer and director who owes much of her success to some of her songs that have taken her fans by storm.
It is precisely because of the relevance of her career, both in music and acting, that we have been able to receive, over the years, a lot of information about her professional life. On the contrary, what we know about her personal and family life is not so much. For this reason, from The Look we have prepared this article in which you can find out who her son is and what he does for a living.
This is Barbra Streisand
In order to talk in depth about one of the most important people for the actress, first we have to review the early years of her life. She is the daughter of Diana Ida Rosen, a soprano singer and school secretary, and Emanuel Streisand, a high school teacher.
When Barbra was just one year old, her father lost his life as a result of an epileptic seizure that probably caused a brain injury. She also has an older brother, Sheldon, and a half-sister, singer Roslyn Kind, whom her mother had with her new husband, Louis Kind.
Jason Gould, son of Barbra Streisand
Life crossed his path with Elliott Gould, with whom he worked on 'I Can Get it For You Wholesale'. After some time getting to know each other, the two decided to marry in 1963. Despite their love, the couple signed a divorce in 1971, but before that they had their only child together, Jason Gould.
Perhaps because of his mother's profession, Jason became interested in the world of acting and became a professional actor, appearing in 'The Prince of Tides', although it didn't take him long to realize that this was not the profession that fulfilled him.
Why doesn't Barbra Streisand's son get a role?
Although he took his first steps as an actor, the truth is that he has also worked as a director and writer throughout his life. However, the main profession to which she is dedicated today is singer. His last role he got in 2000, in the film 'Boys Life 3' and since then, Jason has focused on other projects.
Although for years Gould has been trying different spheres of work, trying to find what his true passion is, for some years now we have been able to deduce that music is what truly fulfills the son of Barbra Streisand. Among his most important musical contributions, we can highlight some like 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', 'How Deep is the Ocean' or 'Dangerous Man'.
