For his achievements as a pioneering and versatile actor of the stage and screen.
Graham Greene is one of Canada’s most prolific and iconic actors. He has appeared in over 100 different films and television series, notably the Academy Award-winning Dances with Wolves and the long-running “North of 60.” With talent and natural presence, he has broken the mould that previously typecast Aboriginal characters and has blazed a trail for the next generation of actors. A veteran of the Stratford Festival, he also serves as a role model, especially in his home community of Six Nations of the Grand River.
