Max Ryan mini-bio: Ryan originates from England, Ireland and Poland, as his blood fathers
background was derived from his father who was half English and half
Irish and was married to his mother who was a Polish Jewess. Ryan's
mother Elizabeth Lynette derived from English parents and married his
father. Both were interested in fine arts so Elizabeth Lynette left her
job as a croupier and became a fine arts dealer with her husband and
spent many years traveling across Europe and America. During this time
Ryan's older brother was born and some years later Ryan. The adventure
continued for many years across these continents and finally the journey
ended and the family settled in England where during this time Ryan
attended school. Ryan enjoyed school and won many running and high jump
events even though these years he was punished for speaking his own mind
and being stubborn so public punishment was soon a weekly event that
became amusing to him. Ryan's family home was broken and sporadic times
with his father helped him with his sports. The years continued and
sports became an integral part of his life leaving the academic behind.
Soon his father was lost in his own world leaving Elizabeth to make good
of her sons and it was not until four years later that she met and
married Jack who was also from a broken marriage with three daughters.
Fitting in with his older brother and older sisters was a challenge but
nevertheless with the obstacles and blows they all survived the
adventure, during this time Ryan's younger brother Jack was born and the
years would be good, as they have just celebrated their silver
anniversary. Ryan's passion in sports soon led him to captain the school
football team and a weekend team would lead him to a trial for an
international football team. International motocross events and
sponsorship took presidency for many years at this level with great wins
and solid sports achievements, a flurry of broken bones would spread over
a two year period and at this point he had to survive so getting a job as
a car mechanic was the nearest he could be to a engine. Ryan began
working as an apprentice Ferrari Mechanic that lasted for years. During
this time frame he attended college earning a Higher National Diploma
(HND & HNC) allowing him to become a licensed Technician. Being an
Adrenaline junky was not easy and speed was a necessary evil, Ryan's
reckless and fearless behavior would promote many car accidents, so this
led him to the track where he lent his talents to one of his favorite
pastimes, motorcycle racing. Soon after, his level of racing had
progressed to the highly competitive British Championships, unfortunately
in 1998, a high speed crash nearly cost Ryan his life. The moments kept
coming and unusual circumstances would continue to arise when during a
family ski holiday he heard a scream outside his hotel apartment, when he
went to see where the noise was coming from he saw an Alsatian dog
attacking two girls in the snow. Ryan jumped over the balcony and fell
three stories landing in deep snow breaking his fall. Ryan fought with
the dog allowing the girls to escape safely back into the building. After
years of unusual and great circumstances Ryan moved to London and
enrolled in a day theatre class, shortly afterwards he was asked to cast
for a TV commercial and with the success of that he began working as a
professional actor.
