Lewiston, Maine, USA:
Patrick Galen Dempsey (nato il 13 gennaio 1966) è un attore e pilota di auto da corsa americano. È noto soprattutto per il suo ruolo del neurochirurgo Derek "McDreamy" Shepherd in Grey's Anatomy. Ottenne un successo precoce come attore, recitando in diversi film negli anni '80, tra cui Can't Buy Me Love (1987) e Loverboy (1989). Negli anni '90 è apparso principalmente in ruoli minori al cinema, come Outbreak (1995) e in televisione. Dempsey è apparso anche in Scream 3 (2000), dove ha interpretato il ruolo del detective Mark Kincaid. Ha ottenuto un ruolo da protagonista in Sweet Home Alabama (2002), un successo a sorpresa al botteghino. Da allora ha recitato in altri film, tra cui Brother Bear 2 (2006), Enchanted (2007), Made of Honor (2008), Valentine's Day (2010), Flypaper (2011), Freedom Writers (2007), Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011) e Bridget Jones's Baby (2016). Dempsey, che possiede una collezione di auto sportive e vintage auto, ama anche le corse automobilistiche nel tempo libero. Ha partecipato a eventi pro-am come la 24 Ore di Le Mans, la gara sportiva di auto sportive Rolex 24 a Daytona e la gara fuoristrada Ensenada SCORE Baja 1000. Prima della 24 Ore di Le Mans 2013, Dempsey dichiarò che avrebbe "lasciato la recitazione" se avesse potuto e si sarebbe dedicato a tempo pieno al motorsport.
