Gabriel Salvador(I)
- Actor
Raised in the Bronx. Gabriel attended DeWitt Clinton High School where he
played football and from there went on to study at Cornell University.
He also spent some time in Sweden, where he was able to study at The
Swedish Film Institute. Gabriel loves languages, he is fluent in
Spanish and Swedish, and has an understanding of French and Hebrew. By
his junior year at Cornell, Gabriel knew that he wanted to be an actor
so he began studying with the great acting teacher Sondra Lee, who is a
mentor, a friend and whom he credits to lighting up his imagination and
creativity. Under Sondra's tutelage, Gabriel began to learn the great
classics like Shakespeare, Chekov and Tennessee Williams and performed
such roles as Marc Antony, Othello and Stanley Kowalski (Streetcar
Named Desire)in Off Broadway Theatre productions. After 8 years working
with Sondra and doing theatre in NY, he was given the opportunity to do
an Independent film called All Night Bodega, to which the film won many
awards and became his ticket to Hollywood. Since being in Hollywood,
Gabriel has been fortunate to have studied with Ivana Chubbuck and
Sandy Marshall. "As an artist you never stop learning." He has been
seen on many award winning shows such as Dexter, ER, CSI and NCIS LA.
