Pat Mastroianni

At the tender age of 13, aspiring Toronto-born actor Pat Mastroianni auditioned for the Degrassi television series and was cast in the iconic role of Joey Jeremiah, for which he won the 1988 Gemini Award for Best Continuing Actor in a Leading Role. After four years on the CBC TV classic, Mastroianni took part in dozens of Canadian film and television productions. When Degrassi: The Next Generation began production in 2001, Mastroianni reprised his role as Joey Jeremiah for another five seasons. Pat now runs the Degrassitour.com fan website and organizes live appearances with and for his fellow Degrassi alumni across North America.
