Jesse Williams

In 2009, Jesse Williams joined the cast of “Grey’s Anatomy” as the young yet hunky Dr. Jackson Avery. Before he started receiving a regular check from Hollywood, Williams followed in the footsteps of his parents and was a teacher. After graduating from Temple University, the “Brooklyn’s Finest” actor taught American studies, African studies and English at a Philadelphia public high school. Williams also modeled while in college and has starred in music videos for Rihanna and Estelle.
