BIOGRAPHY OF MAHERSHALA ALI
Born with the name of Mahershalalhashbaz Gilmore and grew up in California in a small town near San Francisco, Ali enters Saint Mary’s College with a scholarship thanks to his sporting merits in basketball. The sports world does not particularly attract him and he decides to decide to act in parallel with his studies. He graduated in communication in 1996 and enrolled in a theater course at the California Shakespeare Theater. He spends another year on the West Coast getting a job at a radio station, then packs his bags for New York University where he attended the drama program, graduating in 2000.

Almost simultaneously he manages to conquer a character in the last two chapters of the saga of Hunger Games, The song of the revolt part 1 is part 2, which give a strong boost to its popularity. His agenda thickens with commitments starting with the film Free State of Jones with Matthew McConaughey, despite Ali take the time to participate in smaller projects that you believe like Kicks, presented at Tribeca Film Festival, very well received by critics but without a theatrical release.
