[edit] Early years
Nadal was born and raised in Ponce, Puerto Rico, where she lived until she was 23 years old. She graduated from high school from the Academia Santa María. She went on to earn her first college degree from the Pontifical Catholic University of Puerto Rico at Ponce.[1] In a 2011 interview, Nadal said she was "a pure Ponceña" (Ponceña is Spanish for a woman from Ponce).[1]
[edit] Education
During a recent interview in Ponce, Nadal stated "I have a Masters degree in Chemistry from the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez, but I always wanted to be an actress." Thus Nadal went to Mexico to study acting, then on to England.[1]
[edit] Professional career
After her acting classes, Nadal felt she was still repeatedly rejected within the acting industry. “It was very difficult. Imagine, it was always ‘no, no and no’." As a result Nadal started in theatrical arts, entering her husband's theatrical company as producer.[1]
[edit] Personal life
She moved to Los Angeles, California in 2001. Since 2002, Nadal has been married to Edward James Olmos.
[edit] Filmography
Her latest film - América - premiered in the San Juan, Puerto Rico, area though she wanted it to premier in her hometown of Ponce, it could not be done in Ponce for reasons related to sponsorship.[1] Nadal is best known for her role as Frank Lucas's wife in the movie American Gangster.
