Patrick O'Brien Demsey

Actor Patrick O’Brien Demsey was born 14 December 1978 in Danvers, Massachusetts. His parents are Gene and Gail Demsey; he has an older brother, Christopher, and a younger brother, Michael. He graduated from Danvers High School in 1997 and attended Fitchburg State College, playing hockey at both schools, but was forced to quit the sport due to injuries.

Career

Demsey's acting career started with a successful casting call for the 2004 movie Miracle, in which he plays Mike Eruzione, the captain of the US hockey team that defeated the Soviet Union's team in the final of the 1980 Winter Olympics. To prepare for the movie, Demsey trained with the real Eruzione’s hockey team. After "Miracle" he moved to Sherman Oaks, California to continue his acting career, but received only one major role opportunity, for the 2006 horror movie "Big Bad Wolf," an offer he turned down. He returned to Danvers, worked in construction briefly, but returned to California to give acting another try. He received an offer to play a part in the movie "Frail," currently (2008) in pre-production.
