“The only way to ac?complish something is through hard work and con?sistency,”said actor Greg Tarzan Davis.“The first step is to get started.”

Davis grew up in a large family in New Orleans, Louisiana.After earning a degree in elementary education at Louisi?ana State University in Baton Rouge, Davis became a teacher.He always encouraged his young students to follow their dreams.One day, he decided to take his own advice.Although he enjoyed teaching, he had grown passionate about acting.“The first step is always the hardest,”Davis said.“But once you get past it and stay consistent, I promise you, you will achieve your goal.”

At the age of 29, Davis has already had roles in several films.Davis saw a con?nection between acting and teaching.“As an actor, you're required to dig deep into the depths of your childlike imagination when playing different roles,”he said.“What I learned the most as a teacher was how to be free with my mind and imagina?tive with my thoughts by simplyobservingmyfirst?grade students and listening to the big ideas they had, which were so real to them.”

Davis appreciates the opportunity he has as an actor to realize his own potential.And Davis still keeps an eye on the future.He is motivated by a desire to help the next generation follow their dreams.“The people who come after me inspire me,”he said.He wants to show others, especially kids, that anything is possible.He has even hosted movie screenings in New Or?leans as a way to give back to the commu?nity that nurtured him as a child.
