Paulo and his family moved from Colombia to Florida when he was 7 years old. When he first arrived in the United State, he could only say 4 words in English.
Paulo: (on the challenges new Hispanic actors face) There are more Latin actors, but less roles. We need the number of acting jobs to grow and progress as our community does.
Paulo: I would like to get a single out. Before I die, just one single: "Paulo Benedeti Unplugged." Not necessarily by the time I'm 30 or 40, but hopefully by the time I'm 60, I'll know how to write a song, play the guitar on it, play the bass and the drums and sing it. Process it all on my computer, edit it, press my own CDs and sell them on the Internet.
