James Dean Birthplace Site - Marion

James Dean's birthplace site is at the intersection of 4th Street and McClure Street in Marion, Indiana.  The future actor was born at the Seven Gables apartment house on February 8, 1931.  He lived with his parents, Winton Dean and Mildred Wilson, in Marion until he was six hears old and his father moved the family to Santa Monica, California.  The apartment house Dean was born in no longer stands, but a plaque on the corner marks this as the site of his birth.
