Saturated with talent and good looks,
Patrick Dempsey effortlessly draws in the crowd. Versatile and convincingly dramatic, he earns a spot in the popular series
Grey's Anatomy. With a rugged yet charmingly cute facade, he is definitely someone to watch out for.
Born on January 13, 1966 in Lewiston, Maine, Patrick Dempsey first appears in the stage production of Torch Song Trilogy which toured several months in San Francisco. This was followed by a lead role on
Brighton Beach Memoirs and notable appearances in theater productions of
On Golden Pond and
The Subject was Roses. He also starred in movies like
Can't Buy Me Love, Happy Together, The Player, Sweet Home Alabama and
About a Boy. His television credits included
Will & Grace and
One & Again.
Playing Dr. Derek Shepherd in the controversial series Grey's Anatomy has enhanced Patrick's hunky image. Popularly known as "McDreamy", he easily attracts women, most especially his on and off love interest Meredith Grey (
Ellen Pompeo). Their tandem definitely heats things up in the show.
