Career
Al Pacino began taking lessons from famous acting teacher Lee Strasberg and joined the Strasberg Acting Studio in 1967; he appeared in productions in New York and Boston. Pacino’s Broadway debut was in 1969 in Does the Tiger Wear a Tie? – a role that won him a Tony Award.
Al Pacino and Strasberg are seen here at a party in New York in 1976.
Al Pacino credits both Laughton and Strasberg with introducing him to acting, saying in an interview that because he “dropped out of school to go to work,” his “education came from the theaters.”
“People who were my mentors, like Charlie Laughton, who is my biggest friend and mentor,” he continued. “[There’s] Lee Strasberg, Martin Bregman, of course. I can’t say anything without mentioning these three people.”
Bregman produced many of Pacino’s films and was his manager.
In 1971, Pacino landed his first major role in The Panic in Needle Park, playing a man struggling with heroin addiction.
However, his big break came in 1972 when he accepted the role of Michael Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather. The role led to Pacino’s first Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination, although he missed the ceremony entirely. In 2022, he told The New York Times that his absence was not a protest, but rather, “I was a little rebellious.”
Pacino played Corleone in The Godfather II in 1974 and The Godfather III in 1990.
In 1983, Pacino stepped into the role of gangster Tony Montana in the iconic film Scarface.
In 1989, he starred as detective Frank Keller in Sea of Love alongside Ellen Barkin.
