President's Distinguished Lecture Series: Giancarlo Esposito
A prolific actor known from television, movies and Broadway, Esposito has played both villains and inspirational roles. He starred in the AMC hit Breaking Bad in the role of kingpin Gustavo “Gus” Fring, for which he received an Emmy nomination and won a Critic’s Choice Award.
Esposito will share his journey as a biracial actor overcoming the hurdles many people of color face while trying to break into the entertainment industry. He talks candidly about learning to embrace his racial identity as an integral part of his acting identity and encourages all to identify what they love to do and work toward success.
