American actor Scott Meklowitz gained worldwide popularity after his first role. Currently, he plays in films less and less, but his popularity does not fade.
Education
Scott Mekhlovits was born in 1981 in a family of Polish Jewish immigrants: Dr. Susan Lerman and businessman Morris Mekhlovits. He was born in New York, so an actor of Jewish origin has American citizenship and has lived in America all his life.
In his school years, Scott was distinguished by good behavior and diligent study. The boy’s politeness conquered all teachers and parents. He graduated from high school with good and excellent grades and successfully passed entrance exams at the University of Texas. But in this educational institution, he felt out of place, therefore, having studied only one semester, he took his documents from it.
The young man decided to realize his cherished dream - to become an actor. Parents did not quite approve of such an act, but still supported their son. In 1999, at the age of 18, Mekhlovits entered Los Angeles, California State University. There he began to study theatrical art.
Career
Immediately after graduating from the University of California, Mehlovits got his first job. He got a cameo in the American fantasy film Netlandia. The director appreciated the talent of the young actor in his true worth, recommending the young man to other colleagues in the film industry. After this film, the young man became a popular person, they talked about him in the press and began to find out on the streets.
The following year, Scott co-starred in the crime drama The Cruel Stream. This work brought him the first award: he won the American film award "Independent Spirit", intended for independent cinema. In the same 2004, the actor smiled real luck - he was taken on the main role in the comedy "Eurotour". The film won the hearts of millions of viewers, and Mekhlovits suddenly became known around the world.
The year 2005 was marked for Scott by his work on the iconic series Doctor House. The role was small, episodic, but introduced the actor to many celebrities. Soon he again got the main role in the film "Peace Wars", then - in "The Missing" and "Illegals". The latest work with his participation - “Mad Genius” - was released in 2017.
By 2018, Scott Mekhlovits starred in only 13 films. But this does not mean that he is not invited to work. The actor, on the contrary, has to re-read dozens of scenarios, but he is very attentive and careful about his reputation, selecting only those films and roles that he considers worthy and highly moral.
