Jim Halpert

Jim Halpert was born on October 1, 1978, to Gerald and Betsy Halpert.

He has two brothers, Pete and Tom, who share his general love of pranks but have come across as unpleasant and somewhat bullying towards their little brother, and one sister, Larissa, who presumably lives in Scranton as well, as she is listed as his emergency contact at Dunder Mifflin.

While Pete and Tom have been seen on the show a few times, Larissa has not.

He has a niece, Vanessa, and a nephew old enough to play T-ball.

In "Branch Wars", while he is not specific on which brother he is referring to, he states that his brother's wife just had another baby.

Jim enjoys cycling, and, as he reveals in a deleted scene from "Take Your Daughter to Work Day", at times, will babysit Toby Flenderson's daughter, Sasha.

He also lists soft-shell crab as his favorite food.

Jim has noted that basketball "Was kind of [his] thing" in high school.

Although no high school is specifically named by Jim, both Dunmore High School (as evidenced in a deleted scene from "Product Recall" where, during a business visit, he asks a high school student about a former teacher) and West Scranton High School (as evidenced when, during "Email Surveillance", Pam holds up his yearbook displaying their mascot name, Invaders, across the front) are referenced in separate episodes.

In the Episode "Dwight's Speech", Jim tells Dwight that he majored in Public Speaking, however, he later denies this.

Jim began working at Dunder Mifflin in or after 1999 (as evidenced in The Merger, where Jim says that on his first day at work Michael played an orientation video which parodied The Blair Witch Project).

In several episodes, it is stated that Jim is a fan of the Philadelphia Phillies, Philadelphia Eagles and the Philadelphia 76ers.

Apparently, he is of Scottish descent, as in "Niagara", his father can be seen wearing a kilt to his son's wedding to Pam.

In the episode "Weight Loss", it is revealed that his screen name for AIM is JIM9334.

Despite his initial feuding with Dwight, Jim is shown to have some things in common with his nemesis, such as a knowledge of comic books and an appreciation for the sci-fi/fantasy genre; as demonstrated in Take Your Daughter To Work Day when Jim and Dwight correct Michael on details about Superman and Aquaman.

Jim and Dwight are also shown to be an extremely competent sales team in Traveling Salesmen.
