“Maybe what I'm trying to do is heal others. I think what we're trying to do in theater is heal someone.” Of Belizean and Guatemalan descent, Colman Domingo is an actor and playwright born in Philadelphia, United States. He graduated in journalism from Temple University and later moved to San Francisco, where he began participating in theatrical productions as an actor.
