Marcel Nahapetian

ACTOR

Marcel Nahapetian (born February 5, 2011) was born in Burbank, California at a hospital located between two major film studios-Warner Brothers and CBS. Upon his delivery, the Doctor predicted that Marcel would be an Artist. Marcel was born the youngest of three boys to parents Rozheh Nahapetian and Dominique Hilsabeck Nahapetian. Marcel's Father was born in Iran and came to the United States as a Refugee. He quickly learned English from watching American television and became a US Citizen in 1996. Marcel's Father developed a love of learning and strong work ethic, earning his Masters from Pepperdine University. Marcel's Mother, Dominique Hilsabeck Nahapetian earned a B.A. in Film at the University of California at Santa Cruz. She is a Substitute Teacher and shares her love of film with her students. Marcel's family moved around Southern California, before settling into his Mother's hometown of Huntington Beach, California. No matter where the family lived, every Christmas Eve they had their tradition of performing a skit, dance or song. This performing arts tradition was inherited from Marcel's Great Grandmother, Jacqueline Pepitone. This is where Marcel quickly developed a love of acting and creating. Older Brothers, Remy Nahapetian and Armen Nahapetian have formed an Entertainment Company with Marcel called, NahapetianBros Inc. Their dream is to one day create their own films which feature and give voice to Young Artists.
