Paul Sanchez movie list

Paul is a native Californian, equally proud of his Mexican-American and Native-American roots. After graduating high school, Paul received an athletic scholarship to the University of Hawaii, graduated with two degrees and decided to try his luck as an actor. He sought out the iconic Stella Adler, the preeminent acting teacher, auditioned for her and earned a full scholarship to her prestigious Conservatory of Acting, in New York City. For the next four years Paul studied his craft under Stella's watchful eye and began to work professionally in theatre, television and commercials. In 1986 Oliver Stone cast him as "Doc" in the multiple Academy award winning film, Platoon. This was such a life-changing experience for Paul, so important to him personally and professionally, that he chronicled his experience in his multiple award winning feature documentary; Brothers In Arms (that he wrote, directed and was a producer). During his long career, Paul has had the privilege of working with some of the greats of the film industry. As an actor, writer, director and producer, he is known as a true professional, a team player and totally devoted to his craft. In his personal life, Paul is a divorced father of two sons that mean the world to him. Paul understands the importance of giving back to the community, volunteering regularly at a homeless shelter as well as working closely with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Good Shepherd Center for Battered Women and Meals on Wheels.
