Victor von Schirach

Actor, ProducerBorn May 24, 1984 (41 years)
Swedish actor, Victor von Schirach-Szmigiel, was born 1984. He was just a few months old when he was adopted from Poland into a noble Swedish family, with Polish and German roots. The von Schirach's moved to the U.S. in 2002 when his father got an assignment as the Associate Dean for Penn State Executive Education.

After graduating from State College Area High School (P.A.) in 2003, and Bromma Gymnasium in 2004, Victor von Schirach, went to Khao Lak in Thailand to volunteer after the Tsunami. This major tragedy became a life changing experience. Now keenly aware of how short life can be, von Schirach decided to realize his childhood dream of becoming an actor. He enrolled in acting schools such as the Blekinge Läns Folkhögskola, Kulturama, Stockholms Teaterinstitut and later The Academy of Music and Drama in Gothenburg ( otherwise known as the esteemed Teaterhögskolan i Göteborg.)

Victor von Schirach has acted with Chevy Chase, David Hasselhoff and has been featured in the Swedish film and television productions 'Irene Huss', 'Arne Dahl', 'Maria Lang', the BAFTA awarded Danish/Swedish TV-series 'The Bridge', two seasons of 'Elsas värld', 'Aerobics a Love Story', 'Viva Hate', 'Videomannen, 'Vår tid är nu', 'Black Lake', 'Enkelstöten', "The Duckpond', 'Ture Sventon & Bermudatriangelns hemlighet', 'Maria Wern', 'Lasse Majas Detektivbyrå - Tågrånarens hemlighet', 'Fartblinda' (Blinded), 'Sjukt Oklar', and season 2 of 'Dips' as well as the German TV production of 'The inspector and the sea' and the British TV series 'The Mallorca files' for the BBC1.

Apart from his acting career, von Schirach is also a director and producer. He has the great potential of becoming a major figure on the global acting scene. His unique look, versatile talents, and international accents has created a buzz in Sweden already. He is an excellent actor known for his true character portraits, working with the Stanislawski method and improvisation to bring these characters to life. He says " A strongly built character makes a truly great actor. It isn't only about the character it is about whom could I become."
