Shemar Moore mini-bio: Shemar F. Moore (6' 1") is an American actor and former male
fashion model. Shemar was born to a Caucasian mother of Irish/French-
Canadian descent and an African-American father. As a very young
child, his mother moved the family to Holland, and she only spoke
Dutch to him. Since his father was not around, he didn't learn to
speak English until he was about five or six.
Shemar is best known for his role as Malcolm Winters on The Young and
the Restless, which he originally played from 1994 to 2002.
He was the host of the syndicated version of the series Soul Train
from 1999 until 2003, and appeared in the 2000 feature film The
Brothers. In November 2004, he returned to The Young and the Restless
as Malcolm Winters, after a few months he dropped back to recurring
status and left in September 2005.
He currently portrays FBI Special Agent Derek Morgan on the CBS
television show Criminal Minds. He also acted in a supporting role in
the film Diary of a Mad Black Woman.
He has won legions of fans for his high-profile modeling, often
shirtless and in erotic shots, and his status as daytime's first
black soap hunk. Shemar is a graduate of Santa Clara University,
where he majored in Communications and played varsity Baseball.
