Dylan O'Brien was born in New York City, to Lisa Rhodes, a former actress who also ran an acting school, and Patrick B. O'Brien, a camera operator. His father is of Irish descent and his mother is of English, Spanish, and Italian ancestry. Dylan grew up in Springfield Township, Union County, New Jersey, before moving with his family to Hermosa Beach, California when he was 12 years old. Before getting bit by the acting bug, Dylan planned to attend film school and become a cinematographer, just like his father. But once he landed the role of Scott's (Tyler Posey) goofy sidekick Stiles on Teen Wolf (2011), he decided to put off school (he was initially under consideration for the role of Scott, but he was more interested in playing Stiles).
Dylan has developed an extensive YouTube following for a series of comic online shorts which he directed, produced and starred in. He made his film debut as one of the stars of the entirely improvised independent feature film High Road (2011), directed by Upright Citizens Brigade. O'Brien's first lead role in a film was playing Dave in the comedy The First Time (2012), opposite Britt Robertson and directed by Jonathan Kasdan.

Pinchak recorded his first rhythm and blues album at the prestigious Westlake Studios in Los Angeles, and recently wrapped shooting Gavin Hood's Ender's Game, where he starred as "Peter Wiggin" opposite Harrison Ford, Ben Kingsley and Viola Davis.
Pinchak has always been a Renaissance Man, striving to learn it all, and musically he's been no different. Ever since he heard The Beatles at age eight, Pinchak knew that he couldn't be limited to just one instrument, so throughout the years he has learned bass, drums and harmonics, although guitar is still his primary. His musical influences include BB King, Robert Johnson, Eric Clapton and Bob Dylan. In addition to his many instruments, Pinchak is also an accomplished vocalist and lyricist, often described as as poetic and soulful.
Performing at venues across Los Angeles such as CBS Studios and at the Sherman Oaks Summer Festival, Pinchak's fusion of rock and blues has consistently stood out from the crowd. In 2010 he met the veteran music manager Martha Troup, who manages legendary band INXS, and has been working with her since. Pinchak's acting career has been equally successful. He has worked with some of the most distinguished names of our time, including Tom Hanks on The Polar Express and Bruce Willis on Hostage. He has also accumulated television credits, three series regular roles. One on the critically acclaimed FX show Over There, and a recurring role on Men Of A Certain Age. Pinchak also showed his range in the Matt Reeves film Let Me In.
Pinchak hopes to continue his career as a successful actor, while writing and performing his rock/blues music. Jimmy Jax Pinchak is represented by Beverly Strong at Strong Management, Martha Troup at TSA Entertainment and Domina Holbeck at Abrams Artists Agency.
