Graham Greene's illustrious career 

Graham Greene was born on June 22, 1952, in Ohsweken, on the Six Nations Reserve. The actor held several odd jobs before pursuing a career in acting.

However, it took him almost a decade to make his on-screen debut in an episode of the Canadian drama series The Great Detective, which aired in 1979. He later worked on his first film, the 1983 drama, Running Brave.
