Michael K. Williams
Michael K. Williams got his start in the movie business after he was discovered by rapper/actor Tupac Shakur and was cast to play his little brother in the movie Bullet. Williams was born and raised in Brooklyn, his father is from down south and his mother hails from the Bahamas, but for years he was encouraged by his friend and fellow actor Isaiah Washington to find out where his family roots really lie. After having his DNA analyzed, the “Boardwalk Empire” star found out his ancestors are from the Mende tribe of Sierra Leone, just like Washington.
