About The Author
Gary Graham was born in Long Beach, California and grew up in and around Orange County. The son of a medical doctor, he too aspired to a career in medicine. However, despite showing prowess in the medical sciences, Gary left pre-med to study theater arts at the University of California, Irvine, in the early seventies, before he won his first feature film role opposite George C. Scott in HARDCORE. Since that time Gary has appeared in numerous feature films such as ROBOT JOX, THE LAST WARRIOR, MAN TROUBLE, and STEEL, TV movies and series, such as WALKER TEXAS RANGER, and NASH BRIDGES and from 1990 to 1996 starred as Matt Sikes in FOX TV's ALIEN NATION. More recently he was seen in recurring roles as Capt. Ingles on JAG and Ambassador Soval in the new Star Trek series, ENTERPRISE. He now lives in a small town outside of Los Angeles, where he enjoys skiing, golfing, spending time with his familyand flying.
Reader ReviewsI purchased Gary's book and found it very entertaining. I'm not an actor nor do I aspire to be one, but the book is funny and intelligent. There are a few lessons in there that one could apply to everyday life and career, not just acting. It's loaded with something very rare...common sense. Not to mention some very funny stories. Everyone should order it. Mr. Graham's talent for writing is evident in both his book and his website's "Corner"on GaryGraham.com. I would definitely buy a novel or anything else he authors. He should write an Alien Nation or Enterprise novel.
