BIOGRAPHY
Paul LaGreca is an American actor and artist, born in the Bronx, New York in 1962. He appeared in major motion pictures, television series, and the New York stage. He has worked with some of Hollywood's finest artists, including John Cassavetes, Alan Arkin, Sidney Lumet, and Harris Yulin.

His life shifted after meeting Mother Teresa of Calcutta, the now Saint Teresa of Calcutta. Leaving behind his acting career, Paul chose to pursue the life of a missionary in one of the strictest orders of the Catholic Church - The Missionaries of Charity. Eventually, not being able to sustain the rigidity of the order, Paul left the missionaries and returned to New York City.

While he occasionally enjoys performing, his artistic endeavors have shifted to writing and art. "The Boy Behind the China Cabinet" marks his book debut.
