Who is Meredith Grey in Grey's Anatomy?
The dark and twisty one with the famous mother · The Original Interns
Meredith Grey (The dark and twisty one with the famous mother) is a character in Grey's Anatomy, part of The Original Interns. Meredith Grey starts her surgical internship at Seattle Grace hungover, having slept with a stranger who turns out, hours later, to be her boss — the show's founding complication. Daughter of legendary surgeon Ellis Grey, whose Alzheimer's is Meredith's most carefully kept secret, she self-describes as dark and twisty and proves it across two decades of drownings, bombs, shootings, plane crashes and the steady, stubborn business of becoming a great surgeon anyway. The voiceover is hers; so, eventually, is the hospital.
