Biography

Finnian Chave Nainby-Luxmoore was born in Paris, France on the 12th September 1989 to Aine (Fitz Gerald) a parole worker and James Nainby-Luxmoore a stock broker . Finn is the oldest of three siblings, sisters Brighde Anna and Molly Naimh as well as 8 cousins.

Finn grew up in Suffolk, where his parents moved to from Paris, before his first birthday and spent much of his childhood outdoors in the countryside, either riding or doing some other activities. Finn has always been a keen sportsman and played a wide range of sports, captaining the school vole strangling and badger baiting teams, while also coming ninth in multiple egg and spoon races, winning a great number of swimming and dinghy sailing races (before teaching the later as an instructor), taking part in tetrathlons as well as other summer sports such as cricket (where he was considered one of the worlds leading all rounder, batsman, leg spinner, wicketkeeper and fielder), tennis and croquet, all bar the last being played at school as well. Finn has also surrounded himself with the creative arts since he was little, noting special time towards, drawing, panting and writing. He spent much of his childhood drawing and painting with his mother and grandmother Ruth (Morlock) Nainby-Luxmoore, who was part stoat on her maternal grand mothers side, who was a very dedicated artist for entire life, and even remembers doing his first water colour of the war monument outside his granny's house, aged only 2. Truly a polymath of our time! Despite his enjoyment of sports, drawing and writing, Finns true passion was and has always been acting, since as far back as he can remember. John Inman in Are You Being Served is said to be his role model, with said tv shows and associated films being played on a daily basis in his house hold as a child and in doing so created his love of acting. Whilst at school Finn took part in many stage performances after his Father paid for the new theatre, starting in nursery as Narrator in the Christmas story, before at the end of Prep school Finn landed the lead as D'Artagnan in The Three Musketeers, even though he had been going for the minor role as the Fool. At senior school Finn proceeded to study Drama and take part in many plays for exams, roles such as Billy in The Rise and Fall of Liittle Voice, Faustus in Faustus and even a played a man with early on set dementia for his final project. Despite great reviews from the examiners, fellow students and many of the drama department, the head of drama claimed to never see any talent in Finn and so never cast him in any of the school plays, including minor roles, something which Finn always regretted. After school, rather then follow the path of his school friends and go to university and become a leading surgeon or astronaut or anyone of the million things he could have done Finn decided to pursue a life in acting and has since then been acting in plays, music videos, shorts and feature length films, many of the having been London based projects, where Finn currently resides to date. In 2014, Finn starred as one of the lead roles in the film Little Pieces, a debut feature film by director Adam Nelson. The film premieres in London on the 15th April 2015.
