Full Rosie Perez Biography
Rosa Maria Perez (born September 6, 1964) is an Academy Award-nominated American actress, dancer, choreographer and director.
Perez was noticed in a dance club by Spike Lee, who hired her for her first acting role in Lee's Do the Right Thing.
Perez is recognized for her nasal voice and thick Brooklyn accent, which often is emphasized in her films. Her normal speaking voice is much clearer, although her accent remains strong.
Perez is a Puerto Rican activist who fights for Puerto Rican rights from America. Her 2006 film Yo Soy Boricua! Pa' Que Tu Lo Sepas! (I'm a female Puerto Rican, Just So You Know!) is about this fight.
In Fall 2006, Perez starred in and directed the Spanish AIDS PSA campaign "Join the Fight" for Cable Positive and Kismet Films. The campaign featured actor Wilmer Valderrama, BET's Julissa Bermudez, Telenovela actor Erick Elias, singer/actress Lorena Rojas, 2006-2007 Miss Universe Zuleyka Rivera, and actress Judy Marte. An English-language campaign was directed by Liev Schreiber. |
