Mini Biography
August Maturo may be best known nationally and internationally for his starring role on the hit Disney Channel Original Series "Girl Meets World." He was a scene-stealer as 'Auggie,' the precocious son of Cory [Ben Savage] and Topanga [Danielle Fishel] Matthews. "Girl Meets World" was an instant hit and premiered to 5.2 million viewers and Maturo filmed over 70 episodes. The show was nominated for three Emmy Awards including one for "Outstanding Children's Program" as well as three Teen Choice Award nominations, and a Nickelodeon Kids Choice Award. Additional credits for Maturo include: "Teachers," "The Odd Couple," "Weeds," "Dads," "Bones," "Raising Hope," "See Dad Run," "Suburgatory," and "How I Met Your Mother."

Maturo made the jump from television to film in the wildly successful horror movie "The Nun" (Warner Bros) which grossed over $366 Million worldwide. Maturo shined on-screen as Daniel, opposite Demián Bichir, Taissa Farmiga, and Bonnie Aarons.

Next, Maturo can be seen starring as the lead in two upcoming feature films. He plays Joshua in the upcoming independent feature "Shepherd: The Story of a Jewish Dog." Based on the bestselling Israeli novel "The Jewish Dog" by Asher Kravitz it is written and directed by award-winning filmmaker Lynn Roth ("The Little Traitor") and produced by Howard Rosenman ("Call Me By Your Name"). The film is currently in the festival circuit and winning awards.

He also plays the lead role of Lucas in the upcoming horror/thriller "Slapface'"currently in post-production. "Slapface" follows the story of a young boy who deals with the death of his parents and the physical and emotional abuse of being bullied by creating a dangerous relationship with a monster.

Born in Ventura, California in 2007, Maturo began acting professionally at the age of four after appearing in a church play. He loved being on stage and bringing stories to life, so his parents decided to take him to a handful of film and TV auditions, testing the waters in the entertainment world. Maturo instantly captivated casting directors and producers and began landing back to back projects. He booked Girl Meets World at the age of 5, the youngest person ever to be offered a Disney Channel contract.

A cause that is important to Maturo is spreading awareness and promoting the importance of creating an action plan for children and adults who are affected by life-threatening food allergies, something that has challenged Maturo and his family since he was three years old.

Maturo currently lives in the LA area with his mom, dad, and younger brother Ocean, with whom he shares a birthday.
