Homework about past perfect This semester has been quite difficult at school. New vocabulary, a lot of new content, some confusing verb tenses.. I have a 4-page homework to do and next Saturday I have written and oral English exam. I had to write a summed biography about someone's career and I chose Wentworth Miller, who is a guy that I really admire. I know that I have many mistakes in my biography and I'd really appreciate if someone could help me to correct it before I give it to my teacher. So, here it is: "On 4th April, the season premiere of 'Prison Break' (a Fox series) got to Brazil. Wentworth Miller, the protagonist, was born in 1972. Although he was born in Oxfordshire, he has both British and American citizenship since his parents are American and he grew up in Brooklin. He graduated from Princeton University with a bachelor's degree in English Literature. In the same year of his graduation he went to L.A to start working on his acting career. After years struggling, he had only a few small roles in some movies, TV shows and even two participations in Mariah Carey's music video, when he finally got a part in 'Prison Break' as Michael Scofield, an extremely clever and loving guy who risk his life to save his brother from death. In 2010, Wentworth took a shot at writing the screenplay for the movie 'Stoker', which was voted as one of the 10 best screenplay unproduced that year in Hollywood. Since then, he kept working as a screenwriter and also as an actor in the 5th season of Prison Break." Thanks in advance!
