Matthew George Walsh: Liverpool Actor, Producer, and Philanthropist

OCTOBER 2025 - (USAnews.com) Matthew George Walsh’s journey from mental health nurse to award-winning actor, film producer, and philanthropist is a story of passion, dedication, and the desire to make a meaningful impact. 

Born in Liverpool, England, Matthew’s eventual  path to the arts wasn’t a straightforward one, but his diverse experiences have shaped his unique approach to both his professional and philanthropic endeavours - with a passion ignited during his teenage years working Front-of-House at Liverpool’s legendary Everyman Theatre and then a stint working in the arts and charity scene in Paris, France. 

Having worked as a mental health nurse, Matthew dedicated years to supporting individuals in need. His experience in this field deeply influenced his passion for mental health advocacy. 

His career shift to acting was driven not by fame but by a genuine desire to tell impactful stories and connect with people on a personal level. 

For this, he credits his ongoing training with acclaimed Liverpool actress, Sue Jenkins (Coronation Street, Brookside, et al) at The Actors’ Lab in Manchester, UK. 

“I’ve always seen acting as a business - successful businesses are organic and multi-faceted. I am my own brand, and that’s what drives me forward,” Matthew reflects. 

As his acting career began to take off, so did his ventures into film production and financing - including the Liverpool-set ‘Kate & Jake’ where he formed a strong bond with lead actress Sarah-Louise Chadwick, who he has since worked with on further projects. He’s also become involved this year with commercial presenting for https://casecraft.ai/ and photographic modelling.

His Scouse authenticity and passion soon set him apart in the competitive entertainment world.

In addition to charity work, Matthew is dedicated to mentoring the next generation of talent. Through his partnership with his Alma Mater,  Wirral Grammar School for Boys, he helps aspiring filmmakers and actors gain industry experience and connect with professionals who can guide their careers.

"Liverpool has always had a rich creative spirit, and now, more than ever, we’re seeing that talent go global," Walsh says.

As a mentor and 'angel investor,' he is working to bring their films to a wider audience.
