Boothe, the youngest of three boys, was born on a farm in Snyder, the seat of Scurry County, Texas, to Emily Kathryn (née Reeves) and Merrill Vestal Boothe, a rancher. He has been married to his college sweetheart Pam since 1969, and as of 2012, they lived in Los Angeles with their two children, Parisse and Preston.
