Anthony Natale was born in Toronto, Ontario, along with his older brother and younger sister. He represents the generation of a large Italian families in White Plains, New York. He attended a boarding school for the deaf in Ernest C Drury. He was transfered to a mainstream gifted program with hearing students. Upon on his graduation as a valedictorian, he attended California State University in Northridge with a Bachelor of Arts in film production and minor in theater arts. Anthony Natale is the charismatic Deaf stage actor who burst on the movie scene with his 15-minute memorable appearance in Mr. Holland's Opus. As his acting career took off, he added to the mix his motto "I'd like to teach the world to Sign". This secret desire was completed upon meeting Idea Entrepreneur Christie Jenkins, who committed her inheritance to create the first video for the general public to learn to Sign, called How to Talk to a Person Who Can't Hear. This fantastic, award-winning show, starring Anthony and 12 other professional actors, has led to them giving lectures across the country as "The Sign Language Angels". It has just been released in a DVD version with both Spanish and English subtitles, under the name Sign Language for Everyone. |
