Actress Grace Van Patten is no stranger to Hollywood. Her uncle, Dick Van Patten, was a fixture on film and television, perhaps best remembered for his leading role on the comedy Eight Is Enough. Added to that, Grace's father, Tim, has made a name for himself behind the camera, directing episodes of standout series, including Game of Thrones and Boardwalk Empire, among others. With genes like those, it was only a matter of time before the young star found herself working in the industry. Among her most recent projects, Grace finished working on the romantic comedy, Wilde Wedding, starring alongside the likes of Glenn Close and John Malkovich. With several other films set to release in 2017, Van Patten is all set for a wild ride of her own.
