It’s not every day that we see the likes of Michael Berryman starring in movies or TV series, but when he does, the actor brings to life, in a fundamental way, the best portrayal of his character that has left even the highest paid actors and actresses in the world industry will fail. All of these abilities can be traced back to a rare physical health condition that he was born with but has spun into roles in Hollywood’s horror and villain films.
Michael has given it his all since his acting debut, starring in many films, bagging an award nomination as well as winning one. Just like any other celebrity, he has a life outside of what he does on movies/movie sets. Here we’re going to take a closer look at his life before fame and how he’s risen so far over the years.
Michael Berryman’s biography
On September 4, 1948 the actor was born and was named Michael John Berryman in Los Angeles, California, USA but became more popularly known as Michael Berryman. At the time of his birth, life did not begin for him like most others born at that time. Michael was born with a rare condition known as hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia which caused him to have a small head, lack of sweat glands, hair, and developmental disorders with his fingernails and skin. So he looked different than many other people.
Still, the boy took life as it came and against all odds, he turned around, which would have been his limitation to his greatest strength.
Loved writing about his childhood lifeFather Sloan Berryman was a neurosurgeon stationed in Hiroshima by the US Navy in 1947. He was exposed to radiation, which likely resulted in his son being born with birth/developmental disabilities a year later. As you can imagine, throughout his childhood, the child was severely bullied by peers. He often called his children to report them to their parents. He has done this countless times, but his heart has never been broken by the challenges life has thrown at him.
