Cesar Leonardo was born and raised in New York City. At the age of 7, Cesar starred in "Captain Corcoran" at public school 187. It was a sold out show and he received a standing ovation for his performance. It was this feeling of joy that gave Cesar a need to perform. However, it wasn't until he reached West Side High School that his career began to take off. There, he met his performing arts teacher, Barbara Marentette, who in turn introduced him to his current manager. He performed at regional theaters in New York and Florida. He even appeared in several films with big names, until he received his big break when he landed a role on Law and Order. However, he soon decided to put acting on hold so that he could attend college. Recently, he graduated from The Borough of Manhattan Community College and is now looking to restart his acting career. He is now a proud father and is set to take his place among the stars.
