Memos Mpegnis (Greek: Μέμος Μπεγνής; born in 1974 on Salamis Island) is a Greek actor. He plays in Hellenic television series and theatre. He also plays the piano relatively fluently and sings.[1] He has had leading roles in many television series such as Akros Oikogeniakon[2] (2001–2003), Mi mou les antio[3] (2004–2005), Ston Ilio tou Aigaiou (2005–2006) on the ANT1 channel. He currently stars in the MEGA TV Cyprus' show ΤΟ ΔΑΧΤΥΛΙΔΙ ΤΗΣ ΦΩΤΙΑΣ (The Ring of Fire 2014-2015).
His career as an actor began quite by accident when he played piano in a performance of Katia Dandoulaki, which prompted him to enter into acting. He has studied the piano since he was 5 years old and has graduated as a soloist and his career was going to be as a pianist until Katia Dandoulaki met him and asked him to portray a soldier alongside fellow actors Giorgos Karamihos and Panagiotis Petrakis in a play called "The Trojan Women" written by Euripides.
