Edward Norton worked as an analyst for an entrepreneurial nonprofit.
The two-time Oscar nominated actor studied history at Yale, where a back injury forced his early retirement from the crew team. It was then that he tried his hand at theater.
After graduation, Norton moved to Osaka, Japan, to consult on behalf of his grandfather's nonprofit, Enterprise Foundation, a leading provider of capital and expertise for affordable housing. There he studied Aikido, a martial art, and learned Japanese.
