Photograph signed: "Cory Monteith," in blue felt tip. Color, 8x10. Cory Monteith (1982-2013), or better known to Glee fans as Finn Hudson, took an unusual path to fame, first holding jobs as a grocery store clerk, taxi driver and even a construction worker. It wasn't until his early 20's that he landed his first acting role on Stargate: Atlantis (2004), playing a minor role in one episode. From there, Monteith was featured in Killer Bash (2005), Young Blades (2005) Smallville (2005) Final Destination 3 (2006), Kracken: Tentacles of the Deep (2006), and The Invisible (2007). In 2009, Monteith scored the biggest acting role of his career as stud star and singing sweetheart, Finn Hudson on Fox's smash television hit Glee (2009-2013). Overnight, Glee became a sensation, attracting fans from all over the world. He and his co-stars completed soundtracks from the show, performing iconic American hit songs like Journey's "Don't Stop Believing", and he also starred in the Glee 3-D Concert Movie (2011). Monteith was a featured artist on Nickelodeon Teen Choice Awards, winning best actor in comedy (2011). Nominated four times, Monteith and The Glee cast were awarded a Screen Actor's Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series in 2010. Tragically, Monteith died from a drug overdose in 2013, leaving behind his two parents and his fiancé, co-star Lea Michele. Fine condition.
