He was an actor, writer and businessman.
Shakespeare's occupations were Writing plays, sonnets and acting.
Nobody knows what kinds of jobs Shakespeare might have held between the time he left Stratford and the time he becomes recognized as a playwright. That is why this part of his life is called "the lost years".
There is little reliable information about William Shakespeare's early life. Church records attached to the birth of his 7 brothers and sisters list his fathers occupations as: merchant, alderman, and high bailiff of Stratford. It is believed he was successful in his occupations in younger years, but far less successful as he got older allegendly dying quite poor.
