Peter Shinkoda was born March 25, 1971 in Montreal, where he and his brother Dean were raised. Though family and friends encouraged him to be practical and pursue a career in engineering or Medicine, he was focused on an entertainment career from a young age. His first attempt at acting came when he forced his parents to drive six hours to Toronto to attend an international casting call for the role of Short Round in Steven Spielberg’s film Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. He did not get the part, and went on to focus on Sports, excelling at hockey, skiing, football, baseball, soccer and judo.
