He was raised by his mother, Karesse Grenier, a New York City real-estate agent. Growing up, he didn't know who his father was. His parents met while living in a commune, and split up soon after Adrian's birth. The documentary Shot in the Dark (2002) covers Adrian's search to find out who his father was, meet and get to know him. Also involved in the film, as both producer and on-camera interviewer, was Adrian's friend Jonathan Davidson.In addition to acting, Grenier directs and plays in a rock band called The Honey Brothers. Although gossip column rumors have been eager to pair him with the likes of Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton, Grenier has most recently (and most credibly) been linked to Australian actress Isabel Lucas.
I think anybody who's famous has to deal with their fame in their own way, and I dealt with it by making a film about a kid who's looking out into the world of celebrity obsession. Grenier graduated from Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in New York City. I have a bunch of concepts and ideas that I want to do but I have also been growing my production company in general and looking to branch out of projects that I am directing and producing.
Because when you go out, and you have fun, basically you're performing for these tabloid outlets and the paparazzi. And when you perform and create this story, they're chuffed - they get excited, they capture it, and they put it out.He then attended Bard College, a liberal arts college in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, where he studied drama and music. He graduated in 1998.
A burgeoning behind-the-camera career found him directing the 2002 documentary A Shot in the Dark, about his real-life search for his estranged father, with whom he later developed a warm relationship. He also directed the 2006 black-comedy short Euthanasia before producing and hosting the green-themed TV series Alter Eco, an undertaking that tapped into his eco-friendly sensibility.
