Steven Seagal was born on April 10, 1952 in Michigan, the proud son of a math teacher and a medical technician. After attending Orange Coast College and Fullerton College, he took a trip to Japan to study Akido under Master Ishisaka Kiyoshi. During his time there, he was heavily influenced by Zen Buddhism, and he later converted. In his words, "This was the beginning for me, the way I believed it should be--the development of a physical man through martial arts and polishing the spiritual side simultaneously." His first association with Hollywood was in the 1982 movie, "The Challenger," where he was the fight-scene choreographer. His first movie was "Above the Law" in 1988. He had a starring role in the film.
