Robert Booker Baer Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018
Robert Baer was born on July 1, 1952 in Aspen, Colorado, USA as Robert Booker Baer. He is a writer and actor, known for Syriana (2005), Car Bomb (2008) and Cult of the Suicide Bomber 2 (2006).
Baer's books See No Evil and Sleeping with the Devil were the basis for the 2005 Academy Award-winning Warner Brothers motion picture Syriana. The film's character Bob Barnes (played by George Clooney) is loosely based on Baer. For this role, Clooney won a Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role and an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. To better resemble Baer, Clooney gained weight. When Baer learned of this, he was inspired to get back into shape.
