Sam Yazbeck

Born in Lebanon during the war, some of my childhood memories are of my family and I running for our lives to the nearest shelter. I would pretend that I was the hero escorting everyone to safety. I knew then, that with just a little imagination, my life was going to be an amazing journey. When I was twelve, we moved to the US. My teenage years consisted of drinking, doing drugs and getting into trouble. In my twenties, I decided to focus my energy on something less self-destructive and pursue an acting career. I took a hands-on approach and started acting in plays and in short films for free in exchange for experience. Fluent in Arabic and conversational in Spanish, I was usually cast as Middle Eastern or Ethnically Ambiguous characters in intense and vulnerable roles. After paying my dues in South Florida for ten years, I moved to New York where I joined the union and began earning an income as an actor. I would later complete a two year Meisner program at the Maggie Flanigan Studio. It was two years of pure torture and immense growth. I currently live in Brooklyn with my partner of twenty years and our little girl where my journey continues.
