history evaluated. born into a showbiz family, graham was destined for greatness when he first arrived into the world. born to famous hollywood director nathaniel cooper and his broadway star wife caroline, graham was exposed to the cameras and media once he was carried out of the hospital. he was never the one to cry due to the noises created by all the fuss and actually liked the attention came his childhood days. the family stayed in los angeles until his parents divorced and he along with his sister moved with their mother to new orleans to live with their eccentric and loving grandma. of course being a famous director, their father was hardly around and could barely visit the children. the only way he could make up in missing their birthdays and special holidays was by simply flying them over to visit him and taking them to movie premiers wherever he was around the country. however, this only occurred every once in a blue moon until it eventually stopped when graham was about ten.
life continued in new orleans, with his mother managing to live the low-key lifestyle while his father's head was still up in the clouds and now dating multiple women at a time. as a teen, graham didn't shy away from the fact that he was beginning to resent his famous father, especially at the time his father began a much publicized relationship with a twenty year old actress no one knew... until they got married. unfortunately as a family, they were the last to know, finding out through the tabloid magazines. by now, graham vowed not to live a life like his father and stay as far away from hollywood as he could. attending the university of new orleans, graham intentionally had plans to go to medical school and become a pediatrician. despite the wealth his mother had ( his father stopped paying child support of course ) graham knew he wanted to be an independent man, picking up modeling to pay for his university tuition.
in his sophomore year of college, he was noticed by a talent agent and was asked to join a talent agency. knowing well the sort of life that would eventually come if he became a success, graham hesitated at first but was then encouraged to go for it by his mother. she had convinced him that the only reason why his father became the way he was was because he didn't get enough support nor did he have anyone that could keep him grounded and keep his feet on the ground. wanting to please his mother, graham signed to the agency and was immediately cast in an independent film that gain attention from not only the critics, but by his father as well. still scared of fame, graham made sure he stayed out of the spotlight despite being the son of a famous director and starring in a film that was given rave reviews. he kept a low-key life which was also helped by the fact that he was sure to only star in small movies and having small roles on television.
when he was twenty-five, he met and fell in love with his co-star on a soap opera series he guest starred in. her name was caitlin and she was already was a household name with soapie fans. they married within a year however their marriage was not without its issues. you see, caitlin was a spoiled brat and a bitch and graham couldn't handle her anymore. he realised she was too much for him and then she turned on him. the situation was worsened when he wanted children and she didn't, and a month later he found out she was cheating on him with another big name soap star. they eventually divorced, and he swore to never speak to her again. it was then he realised that their love was simply lust. he starred in a few more films and put his focus into his work in an attempt to get over caitlin. his movies were successes and he eventually managed to work behind the scenes, loving it much like his father. now he's completely changed his aspirations and now seeks to become more successful than his father as a producer, writer and director.
