Justine Maurer’s Biography

Justine Maurer was born in the United States on May 8, 1968, into a middle-class family of migrants. Although there’s not any information about her childhood, early education, siblings, parents or what they did for a living, we know that she currently works as a fashion/costume designer. Asides that, we have no tabs on her educational history and training, but we know she must’ve attended school or at least received formal training at some point in her life. Being an unassuming woman herself, Maurer seems to have successfully hidden under the immense popularity of her husband who is a renowned, award-winning comedian, actor and voice animator.

Born in Bogota, Columbia— on July 22, 1964—his parent s moved to New York City when Leguizamo was only four. They settled in Jackson Heights, Queens where he attended the Joseph Pulitzer Middle School and much later the Murry Bergtraum High School. At Murry Bergtraum, Leguizamo began writing comedy scripts which he acted out with his classmates. He was eventually voted “Most Talkative.” Following his graduation from high school, Leguizamo began acting even as an undergraduate at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts.

But he eventually discontinued his program there to pursue a career in stand-up comedy. He, later on, started studying at LIU Post and at HB Studio where he took theater classes. Since he first appeared on TV in 1986, Leguizamo has appeared in over 75 films, produced over 10 films, starred in several productions and TV shows, made over 12 television appearances, published at least two books and has bagged several awards including an Honorary Degree from Marymount Manhattan College.

Now to his personal life. So far, Leguizamo has been married twice. His first marriage was to fellow actress Yelba Osorio on August 27, 1994. The duo has worked on several movies together, including Carlito’s Way, House Of Buggin and The Pest. Although there are no details about their first meeting, we presume their relationship began when they worked together in Carlito’s Way in 1993. However, after two years of marriage, they were divorced in 1996. After seven years as a divorcee, John Leguizamo finally found love in a Jewish costume designer – Justine Maurer who worked in Carlito’s Way back in ’93. Let’s get to know her.
