Upon entering the union after seven years at MGM, Papalia then went on to Set Design for ten years before becoming an Art Director and a Supervising Art Director for twenty-plus years, with time off occasionally to continue as a Set Designer. In the last dozen years, Greg has returned to Set Design, with a specialty in contributing to the concept phase of a project, occasionally working as an Art Director when there's enough fun and adventure involved. He honestly finds Set Design to be the more gratifying pursuit! But, what Greg considers his greatest accomplishment overall is to have worked on, and contributed to over one hundred films and television productions, all while raising two sons, and remaining married throughout all the ups-and-downs that are inevitable in this business.
