Genoa City Presence

Malcolm Winters (1994 to February 14, 2002; October 27, 2004 to September 5, 2005 )

At a Glance

Shemar Moore joined the cast of The Young and the Restless in 1994 in the role of Malcolm Winters, a charismatic bad boy turned photographer.

Shemar has come a long way from his days as a struggling model in California. Since his debut on Y&R he has appeared on Moesha, The Nanny, Chicago Hope, Arliss and starred in his own HBO film Never too Big.

Five years ago, Shemar's big break came when he was discovered by Hollywood executives who offered him the role of 'Malcolm Winters'. Shemar immediately shelled out $1100 to pay for an acting coach and after beating out six other hopefuls he landed the role.

Shemar was born in Oakland, California but spent the first few years of his life in Denmark, Bahrain, Germany, the Virgin Islands and Africa. Shemar attended Santa Clara University, where he majored in communications and played varsity baseball.

During his spare time, Shemar enjoys boxing, baking, and sports.
