In his youth, Oscar Torre wanted to be a baseball star. He played often, invested time and energy into the sport, but lacked the skill and speed to make that dream a reality. Yet, becoming an actor was accidental for the motivated and eager film and screen star. "I fell into acting by chance," Torre said. "I had one more credit left in college, an elective. And my girlfriend at the time, I asked her to sign me up for a class. And, as a joke, she decided to sign me up for acting class, though I was quite shy."
Oscar Torre has played everything from a police officer to a bartender; and, when asked to discuss his favorite role, he confessed that whichever character he's portraying at the moment, happens to be his favorite role at the time.
