Nate Parker (born November 18, 1979) is an American actor and filmmaker. He has appeared in Beyond the Lights, Red Tails, The Secret Life of Bees, The Great Debaters, Arbitrage, Non-Stop, Felon, and Pride. He made his debut as a director with his drama film, The Birth of a Nation, in which he also starred. It made history at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival when Fox Searchlight Pictures acquired the distribution rights for $17.5 million, breaking the record for the most paid for a Sundance Film Festival production. It surpassed Little Miss Sunshine, which ten years earlier had been acquired by Searchlight for $10 million. The film was ultimately unsuccessful in wide release and did not receive acclaim. Its reception was affected by news of rape allegations made against Parker. (Via Wikipedia)
