Justin Chambers stars as Alex Karev on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy"

Justin Chambers was born and raised in Springfield, Ohio. Discovered on a subway in Paris, Justin Chambers began his career as a professional model working throughout Europe, Japan and the U.S. with contracts at Calvin Klein and Armani, among others.

Setting his sights on acting, Justin Chambers moved to New York and studied for four years at H.B. Studios and Ron Stetson Studios. His training garnered him several television roles, including "Another World," "New York Undercover," "Rose Hill" with Jennifer Garner and "Four Corners" with Ann-Margret.

Described as "part James Dean, part Marlon Brando" (Harper's Bazaar, 1998), Justin Chambers got his big break when he was cast in his first feature film, "Liberty Heights," directed by Barry Levinson. As a privileged but good-hearted troublemaker, he proved that he had the acting chops to hold his own opposite co-star Adrien Brody, and soon went on to play the lead role of D'Artagnan in Universal's action/adventure, "The Musketeer." Additionally Justin Chambers starred opposite Jennifer Lopez in the hit romantic comedy, "The Wedding Planner," and with Uma Thurman in HBO's critically acclaimed "Hysterical Blindness." Justin Chambers will next be seen in the upcoming independent films "Southern Belles," opposite Ana Faris and Fred Weller, and "In Control of All Things," opposite Robin Tunney and Rory Culkin.

Justin Chambers currently resides in New York with his wife and five children.
