Greg Benson has firmly established himself as one of the hardest-working commercial actors in the business. With his strong performance as "Homer" in the Slamdance Film Festival, hit Black Days (2001), and a scene-stealing role opposite Karen Black in Don't Try This at Home! (1998), it seems Hollywood has finally begun to realize what he has to offer. Benson was born and raised in Dallas, Texas, and relocated to Los Angeles to pursue work in television and film. He quickly became one of the busiest commercial actors in town, performing in over 80 advertisements including Michelob, Hertz, Lean Pockets, Honda and M.C.I. His film career began with small roles, including a great turn as "Jeff", the smarmy coworker in Robby Benson's cult film Modern Love (1990), and he has appeared in character roles in over half a dozen films since then. He's also had guest appearances on numerous television shows, including a memorable comic performance as Jane's neighbor in the final season of Melrose Place (1992) in 1999. Show less «
