Biography
Samantha Futerman, born Ra-Hee Chung in South Korea on November 19, 1987, is a South Korean-born American actress, writer, director, and activist. She is best known for two works: her supporting role in the World War II–set drama *Memoirs of a Geisha* and her self-directed documentary *Twinsters*, which chronicles her discovery of an identical twin sister through Facebook and their reunion. The twin story became central to her public identity—a confluence of chance, adoption, and digital connection that shaped her subsequent work in film and activism.
Futerman's Life Path 1 [birth] reflects a pioneering, independent streak: she pursued directing and storytelling on her own terms, turning a personal discovery into documentary art. As a Scorpio [birth], she embodies the sign's investigative nature and emotional depth, traits visible in both her acting choices and her willingness to expose intimate family truths on screen. Working across acting, writing, and directing, she expanded beyond traditional Hollywood roles to create work rooted in her own lived experience. Her citizenship bridges both South Korea and the United States, a duality that informs her perspective on identity, family, and belonging.
