Venezuelan finds parallels in diplomacy, acting

Edgar Ramirez might have made a name for himself as a diplomat, but instead he's becoming internationally known as an actor on the rise. 'I think that the reason why I wanted to be a diplomat had a lot to do with (being) fascinated by human nature with all its flaws and all its virtues,' says Ramirez, a Venezuelan who grew up in several different countries thanks to his father's position as a military attache.
