- PaisJane Fahey (Gallagher)Francis Thomas Fahey
- Piercing blue eyes
- B-movies and independent films
- Was invited to take ballet and instantly caught the bug. Despite being at the advanced age of 25, he won a full scholarship to study with the Joffrey Ballet School in New York City. He stayed there for three years. He also taught ballroom dancing.
- Fahey left home at age 17, having heard "the call of the open road". Spent time trekking through the Himalayas and Afghanistan in his younger years while traveling around the world. He also hitchhiked to Alaska, backpacked through Europe and worked in an Israeli kibbutz, taking any odd job there was. He often returns to Kabul, Afghanistan, where he supports an orphanage.
- Of English and Irish ancestry, he is one of thirteen children born to Jane and Frank Fahey, and raised in Western New York.
- He joined the cast of Lost (2004) in 2008 and is working with two former co-stars, Josh Holloway, with whom he worked in Atração Sem Limite (2001), and Naveen Andrews, with whom he worked in Grindhouse (2007).
- (Making so many movies at once on a regular basis): "I got used to it quickly, because it's an easier job than what I was doing. I was making four or five films a year, mostly independent films, around the world. Out of the 41 films I've done, maybe seven of them have been studio films, I had an easy gig. So I would go from film to film. And there would be a new crew, new actors, new directors, new producers, new locations, some much worse than others. I'm not complaining about the work; I'm just saying that having a nice trailer on the set, a nice hotel, and a studio and a network behind your show is a lot easier than wondering why your tent is leaking."
- Eventually, I'll build a ranch and raise horses.
- (On appearing on the new TV show "The Marshall"): "All my buddies over the years, like Kevin Costner and the guys -- I see 'em go here, I see 'em go there -- but I just do my work. And now this. People say it's going to change your life. I tell them that it's always changing anyway."
- I have an affinity for good roles in good films. I like a variety of parts, and if some of the good stuff happens to be in fantasy and horror, I do them.
- (On being directed by Anthony Perkins in Psycho 3) That was pretty wild to be shooting at Universal Studios. It was my second film and to be on the backlot at night with the fake rain and lightning and you look up and there's the Bates Motel house and all of a sudden Anthony is talking to you, man. There I am with a crew of one hundred and fifty people around, but you're in between this little space called action and cut talking to Norman Bates - I mean my God! You know what I mean? It's been a wild ride.
