Biography
Meadows was born in Labrador City, Newfoundland and Labrador. He grew up in British Columbia, lived in England briefly as a child and Los Angeles for three years. As of 2010 Meadows resides in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Acting career
Meadows became recognizable after rolls on MTV's 2gether, multiple episodes of Showtime's The L Word and the highest Rated episode of Jeremiah, "And the Ground, Sown with Salt" (along with Luke Perry, Jason Priestley and Malcolm-Jamal Warner). He has performed in two Stephen King films, The Mangler 2 where "critics" compared him to a young Vince Neil and NBC's remake of Carrie where he received rave reviews from traditional media and online critics.
Meadows took a step back from acting in 2007 to take care of his father who suffered from Parkinson's disease. His father passed away Aug 9th 2009. Currently Meadows has continued to shy away from the industry he loves in order to take care of his family. When asked about the last few years and if he thought a career was possible he laughed, "I hope I can go back, casting in Vancouver is a pretty small powerful group, but they're good people. When our world gets stable I'd love to start working again, but people don't realize how much you have to give up to work in this business. I'll put my career ahead of everything but my family, the people I love come first, and so it can wait until everyone's healthy again. You can't cuddle a career, it won't love you back."(For the full interview see the December issue of Brazilian Caras Magazine) Miles Meadows is currently a medical first responder for the City Of Vancouver and carries two degrees.
