Career

Greg Finley is best known for his role as Jack Pappas, on The Secret Life Of The American Teenager.[1] In February 2010, Finley was cast in the Dark Sky Films thriller Hypothermia, directed by James Felix McKenney.[2]

Personal life

Finley was raised in Scarborough, Maine, a coastal town seven miles south of Portland. His father is part-owner of the Dry Dock pub and restaurant on Portland's waterfront. After high school, Finley enrolled in a restaurant management program at Johnson & Wales University in Rhode Island, but his academics suffered due to a large abscess in his throat. Finley required emergency treatment and lost about 60 pounds in the process. In order to cope, Finley watched movies and through this hardship, he decided to become an actor and at age 19 moved to Los Angeles.[3]

One of Finley best friends is his Secret Life of an American Teenager co-star Daren Kagasoff, one of the activity the two enjoy together is golfing.[4]
