- He Liked Black-Eyed Peas. Temple, Texas was the birthplace of Elmore Rual Torn Jr on February 6, 1931. Torn’s father was an agriculturist with a strange dream: He wanted Americans to eat black-eyed peas for New Year's Eve (it did not catch on).
- He Name Was A Joke. The name Rip Torn seems to be a running joke throughout Torn’s life. When he was a child he had a friend named Larry Blyden who pronounced his name “Bleedin”.
- He Needed A Lot Of Money. Torn initially thought he'd work in agriculture like his father, so he studied animal husbandry at the University of Texas. He thought that owning his own ranch would be the coolest thing ever, but there was one problem: He didn't have the money.
- They Didn’t Want Him. Torn soon realized that, despite his made-for-the-marquee name, nobody in Hollywood wanted to give him a shot. So, instead of returning to Texas with his tail between his legs, he headed to New York.
