Jay Lyons is the father of Claire Lyons and Todd Lyons in The Clique series. He is portrayed by Neal Matarazzo in the movie.
History[]
Jay moves from Orlando to Westchester in The Clique (novel) so that he can take a job working for his old college friend, William Block. The Lyonses live in The Block Estate guest house until A Tale of Two Pretties, when they purchase their own home.
Personality[]
Jay has a good sense of humor and is more easygoing than most fathers in Westchester. He does lots of funny dances, owns a toolbox, and has a sweet tooth. He is kind and reasonable, but can also be strict at times. When Claire is expelled from OCD in Dial L for Loser, Jay punishes her by making her get ready every morning as if she is still going to school and completing all of the homework Layne sends her.
Appearance[]
Jay was considered good looking in Orlando, but not in Westchester. He is a portly man with light brown/gray hair, blue eyes, and a graying beard.
