Cinna's choice

After reading the two prequels, I am seeing this little snippet of dialogue between Cinna and Katniss in a whole new light. On one level we know why Cinna asked for District 12. He was working for the rebellion. But I would love to know what his story and motivation were. After all, he went into this knowing the risks, and in the end he died because of his choice. And while Katniss and he worked so well together, his choice to work with District 12 was not because of Katniss. He chose that before she was part of this.
