We had a great conversation with Kevin Mambo on The Chris & Sandy Show. We talked about so many things from family, acting, his career, he told some great stories to a whole lot more!
Kevin Mambo can currently be seen on the new Netflix drama, Hit & Run. The series tells the story of a man searching for the truth behind his wife’s death who becomes caught up in a dangerous web of secrets and intrigue stretching from New York to Tel Aviv. Mambo plays an NYPD detective with a wry sense of humor who has seen it all and nothing can phase him.
He is no stranger to the small screen. Mambo had large roles on hit series such as Luke Cage and High Maintenance. He is also a two-time Daytime Emmy winner from his leading role on the long-running soap opera Guiding Light. Other film and television credits include Cadillac Records, Nina, Law & Order, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Blacklist, and Elementary just to name a few.
Mambo has added to his repertoire with a very impressive list of on-stage roles. He played the title character in the Tony Award nominated Fela!, and brought his talent to the role of Mafala in Book of Mormon. He was also seen in the revival of The Color Purple and The Public Theater’s Fortress of Solitude.
