Mark Margolis's Journey in Hollywood
With his impeccable acting skills, Mark Margolis left a lifelong impact on the fans. The actor was popularly known for portraying the role of Hector Salamanca in the hit series Breaking Bad.

In 2012, the actor was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for his role as Salamanca. During an interview, the actor said,
"And because I couldn’t speak for the first time in my long career, it forced me to listen to what the other actors were saying. Most actors tend not to listen to what anyone else is saying because they’re so focused on their own performance."
But this wasn't the point from which his journey started. The actor contributed 44 years of his life to the film industry. He began his career as a supporting actor in the 1979 film Going to Style. However, his breakthrough role was in 1983’s Scarface, where he played the role of mobster Alberto.
