Peter Mensah
With parents of the Ashanti origin, actor Peter Mensah was born in Accra, Ghana and raised from a young age in England. The actor, who I’m sure you’ve seen before in movies like 300, Avatar, and currently carrying a regular role on “True Blood” and “Spartacus,” reps his homeland very hard, even lauding Ghana in interviews: “I am very attached to Ghana, especially as so many members of my family live there…and thankfully, with the use of Skype and the Internet we are able to be in consistent contact, even if we can only occasionally see each other. I feel really fortunate to have roots in such a breathtakingly beautiful country.”
