Grant Gillespie's a professional actor, novelist and screenwriter who lives in the beating heart of central London.

As well as his film and TV credits, Grant's worked in theatre with notable directors such as Michael Grandage, Jamie Lloyd, Stephen Unwin and Erica Whyman. He also does MOCAP work and voices characters for computer games.

Grant's debut novel, The Cuckoo Boy, was described as 'an emotionally visceral debut' (Guardian).

The Cuckoo Boy is a savage indictment of hypocrisy and forced social convention.' (Observer).

Grant also writes TV series, podcast dramas, radioplays and screenplays, sometimes collaborating with Kate Ashfield (writer of CH4's Born to Kill). Their series, Harvest, is on the slate at Kate Lewis and Julia Walsh's production company, Neon Ink.
