Lina Esco: My Miami Story

Lina Esco knew she wanted to be an actress at an early age, but her reasons were a little bit different from everyone else. Esco wanted to act because back in 2nd grade in Miami, students in her class got to leave early to rehearse for the school play. She felt like everything was possible in South Beach and lived in Florida until she was 15. The Miami native is now one of the co-stars of the CBS hit drama "S.W.A.T." and stopped by the CBS Local Studios earlier this year to discuss why she wanted to be an actress and her favorite things about growing up in Miami.
