Shahin Sean Solimon was blessed to have been able to experience two separate cultures, and understand the beauty of both. He is of Persian heritage but was brought to the states (Tampa, Florida) at the tender age of 6 and raised by an adopted American family until the age 12. His American father (George) a very intelligent family man who was also a well respected professor at USFL in the field of film/television taught him a great deal, not just in the arts but also about Western culture, hard work, life, etc.Eventually his biological mother (a well known Persian pop star "Fataneh") was able to finally migrate to the US and leave the Iran revolution of 1978 and reunite with her son. The family eventually moved to Hollywood, California where she pursued her own dream of a solo singing career.Having this unique experience and view of the world only brought Shahin closer in realizing his dreams as a creative writer and performer. He eventually studied at HFI under Dove Simmons and eventually wrote, performed in, and produced the indie film "Djinn" as his first project. He is now working on several new projects in development.
