James Cameron 
From Truck Driver to Director

In the last few decades, more and more people are going to college to further their education. It’s hard to become a scientist, a professor, or a businessperson without getting some sort of college degree–but college isn’t always necessary to achieve success. Some people are ready to enter the workforce right after high school. James Cameron was one of these people. The successful director has created some of Hollywood’s biggest hits. From "Aliens" to "Avatar", from "Terminator" to "Titantic", Cameron has been making dreams–and nightmares–come to life on screen for decades. And what’s most amazing about his story is that the famous filmmaker did it all without a college degree!
