Leif Green is an American actor and production manager. He is perhaps best known for portraying Davey Jaworski one of the T-Birds in the 1982 sequel to the 1978 motion picture Grease as well as the hero Eugene Groebe in the 1983 sex comedy film Joysticks.
In addition to his lead roles in Grease 2 and Joysticks, Green has also appeared on six TV series and a documentary. Upon retiring from acting, he eventually became a production manager or production assistant, and from 2001 and 2006 he was a production manager and worked on three motion pictures (serving as an assistant production manager in two of these roles, as stated below).[citation needed]
