King Carter born Shakim Carter was born on October 4, 1993, in Jamaica Queens, New York. At the age of 13 he and his family were evicted and were forced to live in a homeless shelter in Brooklyn, New York. Because his landlord lost his house due to foreclosure. After months of living in a homeless shelter he and his family found an apartment in Rockaway Beach, New York. Two years later he began studying acting. He started out doing student films for students at the New York University, print modeling, and background work to get familiar with being on set & to earn money. His first modeling job was the cover of the Scholastic Bluford High book "Search for Safety" as the character Ben McKee. On February 5, 2013, he was cast for a role in Eve's music video "Make it out this town" as a high school bully. Recently he just finished his second short film entitled "This Is My Neighborhood" with just a 2 men film crew. After his first short film got selected into 3 film festivals and the movie trailer getting over 100k views on YouTube he had to make another film. Today he is still pursuing his dreams and has used his past experiences to motivate him.
