Alice Greczyn is an actress and writer who may be most familiar to audiences from her role as Mads Rybak in the ABC Family show The Lying Game.
What audiences may not know is that Alice experienced what she calls a “painful yet rewarding transition from Christianity to atheism.” It led her to create a website called DaretoDoubt.org, a resource for people leaving their faith. She now lives in Los Angeles and has just published a book about her journey out of religion called Wayward.
