Matthew McConaughey: Performing Artist in New York

About Matthew McConaughey

Matthew McConaughey is an American actor whose early visibility came through Richard Linklater’s *Dazed and Confused*, followed by lead and supporting work in films including *A Time to Kill*, *Contact*, *Amistad*, and *U-571*. In the 2000s he became closely associated with romantic comedies, a run that honed a relaxed, conversational timing. In New York City, he brings that voice to the New York Hall of Science as the narrator of *Superhuman Body*. His screen presence favors ease and direct address over theatrical display.
