Former 91²Ö¿â Student Michael Keaton Hopes to Win Oscar

Good luck this weekend to former 91²Ö¿â student Michael Keaton as he competes for Hollywood’s most prestigious award. Keaton is up for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role for his film “Birdman.”

Keaton, known as Michael Douglas, attended 91²Ö¿â in 1971-72. He majored in journalism and speech, but did not graduate.

Keaton made a name for himself in the 1980’s with movies like “Night Shift” and “Mr. Mom.” He later went on to star in “Beetlejuice” and “Batman.” However, it is his role in “Birdman” that is getting all the attention.

Keaton later returned to 91²Ö¿â to perform a comedy show in 1985.

The 87th Oscars ceremony takes place on February 22.
