He has starred in films, television, commercials, and on stage. Carafotes was born into an American Greek family and raised in Somerville, Massachusetts. He graduated from Somerville High School. The Beatles played one of the biggest catalyst in his life from the moment he watched them on the Ed Sullivan show at 4 years old. He began performing as a Beatle in his parents garage, lip- syncing to those fantastic records. The neighborhood girls would pay 5 cents entrance fee and scream their heads off, chase the little Beatle band though the neighborhood. Paul got the acting bug when a friend was trying out for the Christmas show in Junior High school. He decided to sneak into the theater, hide out in the back of the auditorium and generally became a distraction by teasing the students that were auditioning. The drama teacher had enough of his clowning around demanded he get up on stage and audition. He ended up with one of the starring roles in the production of" Babe's in Toy Land". He walked out on stage for the first time enthusiastically, gripped by fear to a full house, five hundred of his fellow students. His first line uttered produced laughter intoxicating Paul. His love for the movies came from his dad and together they would watch all the old 1930s and 1940s movies repeatedly. James Cagney was Paul's favorite.
