- Emmanuel Brown was born on February 14, 1982 in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. He developed a love for acting and the martial arts at an early age. Fostering a love for the movies led him to want to be an actor. He performed in school plays in elementary school and middle school, which was around the same time that he was introduced to the martial arts. The martial arts became something of an obsession for him and he went on to become a State, National, and World Sport Karate Champion all by the age of 18. After achieving success in the martial arts, he decided it was time to return to his first love...acting. He went on to receive his BFA from the University of Florida in 2004. Since then he has performed on and off Broadway, on national tours, and on TV and film as an actor, dancer, acrobat, singer, martial artist, and a fight choreographer.
