Google is paying homage today to late Egyptian actor Omar Sharif on what his would-be 86th birthday. Sharif — who earned a degree in mathematics and physics from Cairo University — began his acting career in Egypt in the 1950s, but was catapulted to international fame following his role in the 1962 film Lawrence of Arabia. In addition to several Egyptian movies, Sharif also starred in Doctor Zhivago and Funny Girl, earning three Golden Globe awards and one Oscar nomination.
