Born: September 2, 1966 - Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz, Mexico
Salma is the daughter of a Spanish descended mother and a Lebanese descended
father. She is considered the first Mexican actress to become a Hollywood
movie star since Delores Del Rio. Salma was raised in Coatzacoalcos, and
at twelve, her parents sent her to a catholic boarding school in Louisiana.
Salma was suspended from the private school and
sent home after just 2 years. Her aptitude for mischief, usually directed
against the nuns who ran the school, played a key roll in her dismissal.
Salma finished high school in Mexico, and then went to live with her aunt
in Houston until she was seventeen.
Salma relocated to Mexico City to attend college,
where she studied international relations. She had harbored her desire
to become an actress for years, and she finally confronted her parents
and told them of her aspiration to pursue acting. Despite her parents
disapproval, Salma quite college and pursued her acting career. Salma
started in plays at neighborhood theaters, which led to jobs in television
commercials, which in turn yielded a casting in "Nuevo Amanecer",
a daytime TV serial.
Salma was then cast as the title character in an
extraordinarily popular soap opera, "Theresa". Salma's popularity
grew quickly and soon she was the most fervently adored actress in Mexico.
Rather than settle into the stardom she had, Salma decided to risk it
all by moving to Los Angeles in 1991.
She worked hard to get going and took intensive
acting and English lessons. In 1993, she got her first break. Salma didn't
get the large role she wanted in Allison Anders' "Mi Vida Loca",
but it qualified her for membership in the Screen Actors Guild. Salma's
appearance on a Spanish-language cable access talk show led to her big
break. Mexican American director Robert Rodriguez was so impressed with
the sparkling charisma and dazzling appearance of Salma that he immediately
cast her in the female lead in "Desperado". She received rave
reviews for her exceptional performance and sizzling sexy style.
