Steve Rogers

Early Life
Steve Rogers was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1918, to Sarah and Joseph Rogers - a nurse and a soldier in the army, respectively. Sadly, Joseph was killed during the First World War, leaving Sarah to raise young Steve on her own.

Steve was a sick child, and was often bedridden, and as a consequence, had almost no contact with other children. He did befriend Bucky Barnes, and the two became fast friends.

As an adult, Steve set his sights on becoming an animator for the Walt Disney Company, and put himself through art school. Unfortunately, towards the end of his studies, Steve's mother, who had been working in a TB ward, contracted tuberculosis and died while Steve was away at school.
