Who is Sarah Polley’s biological father?

Sarah Polley is a Canadian actress, writer, director, and political activist who rose to fame in the early 2000s.

In 2007, she made a shocking discovery: her father, Michael Polley, who had raised her since birth, was not her biological father.

In 2013, Sarah released a documentary titled Stories We Tell which explored the truth behind her parentage. 

Through DNA testing and interviews with family members, Sarah uncovered that her biological father was actually Harry Gulkin, a Montreal-based Jewish businessman.

The revelation of Sarah’s true parentage has been met with mixed reactions from both sides of the family. 

While Sarah has remained close with Michael and considers him her father figure regardless of biology, but she has also formed a strong bond with Harry Gulkin and his extended family.
