DEAN KIRKRIGHT Favourite number: 11 Favourite color: Red Favourite Actors: Leonardo Di Caprio, Antony Hopkins Dean Kirkright was born on October 28, in (Kew) Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. He is the only son and is the middle of two sisters, Tamara & Amy. His father, Gary Kirkright has been a pastry cook for over 40 years. His mother, Jeanette Brennif came to Australia with her family when she was 12 years old all the way from Belfast, Ireland and met Gary Kirkright at Bible College. Young Dean grew up in suburban Melbourne. He was never the popular kid, nor was he the unpopular kid, although he did have the best job around town for a 14 year old. He worked for the Essendon Football Club in the property department as a runner/ gofer. This entitled him to work at every game and secured him a seat on the player’s bench. Every Aussie kids dream job. Acting was never on the cards for Dean. His friends and family all thought he would be an Australian Rules football player. T

  • Candice It was a fantastic opportunity to work along side Dean on the feature film, 'Picnic'. Every single one of us learnt something new and it was great to have his level of professionalism and experience on set. Look forward to working together again soon.
