NIP/TUCK
UNKNOWN
THE GUARDIAN

I have helped coach my friend and talented actor Blair Williamson on several projects including NIP/TUCK, the feature film UNKNOWN, and THE GUARDIAN which was directed by Emilio Estevez.

Meet The Fockers

I met Dustin while working on MEET THE FOCKERS. Such an amazing Man. Gracious, Giving, and such a Mench. He has always been one of my Top 2 favorite Actors. (The other being Peter Sellers) It is so amazing to find out that the people you admire are even more wonderful than you expected. Thank you Dustin. This picture was taken after shooting a scene on location. It felt like family. It was family. Three Fockers. Dustin, David, and Max.(Dustin’s Son, another Focker and another Mench)

Media Access Awards

To be a part of these awards is a great honor. This is a family that keeps me going.

Dinner for Five

What a joy it was to work with such talented people like Jon Faveure and Peter Billingsly. Being behind the scenes on "Dinner For Five" has enhanced my creative exploration and understanding. It is truly a "family feeling" at the IFC show.

Angela Rockwood Nguyen
&
Auti Angel

I teach an ongoing acting class which meets once a week and has a core group of amazing and talented actors and artists. One of my greatest joys in life is to have friends like Angela Rockwood Nguyen, a Spokesperson for the "Christopher and Dana Reeves Foundation," and Auti Angel, who is the Founder for the "Save A Soul Foundation." Besides both of them being true Angels and Friends, they are also great teachers. We all learn from each other.

Paved With Good Intentions

Director JD Cochran and Producer Yolanda Cochran have brought together an amazing story and a Cast of Powerhouse Actors that include Sharif Atkins(ER) and Taneka Johnson(ANY DAY NOW). Working with Sharif was like hanging out with my brother. And Taneka has become a good friend who is near and dear to my heart.

Perceptions

Being Creative. Having a Dream and going for it. That is what Dawn Grabowski did. I came aboard her project PERCEPTIONS as a Casting Director. Because of her drive and love for what she was doing I ended up also Acting in it and being an Associate Producer. It is the things that come from the heart that entice me and bring me joy.

Billboard

My cousin was driving on the Freeway one afternoon after work, and he told me that he almost crashed into the car ahead of him when he saw my face peering out onto the 101. There were a dozen of me all throughout the Bay Area. Can you tell what it is advertising?

Born to Act

How special it makes a person feel to give of themselves. When I was in 2nd Grade, in art class, I made a design out of leather and wood with my favorite saying. It still is one of my favorite... "Love is Giving." The love you give out comes back to you, and being a part of the BORN TO ACT PLAYERS does that. They are all family and all inspirations to me. What a special group of actors who range from 8 to 70. And all different and special in each and every way.

Geo Works

I was lying down on the sand while they were testing the lights. They were planning to only take shots of my body and use the face and body of the other Actor/Model. Of course I couldn't help but to enjoy myself. I heard some laughing in the distance... "What a great face you've got," the producer shouted.
I responded, "Ya... too bad your're not gonna use it." My bluntness caught me off guard, but it also got me more exposure.

Cartoon

I always wanted to be a cartoon. One day I was hanging out with a friend of mine who draws for many studios, and asked him if he draw me. A week later this is what he came up with. Thank you Andreas!

Katy Kurtzman

I held the train at her wedding, looking out upon the guests thinking..."So this is what it feels like to get married." Katy is an amazing talent it wasn't until 3 months of first meeting her that I found out that she was a regular on one of my favorite TV shows, "Dynasty". We went on to work together in "THE POOL BOY".

MaryJo Mundy

Mary Jo Mundy...the new svelte Jo..100+ pounds gone! One of my top three favorite singers (right next to Barbra), and a dear friend. Thank you JO for such a wonderful talent and the joy you bring to so many.
And thank you for keeping this site polished.

Bar None

One of the longest running comedy hits in San Francisco...I had fun switching off between two different roles, the nerdy campaign advisor and the flaming bartender.

End Game Review

If anyone knows where to locate Sharon Miller, the author of this review, email me. I want to Thank her with a dinner at the Ivy.

Roy Abramsohn

Roy and I did two Greyhound Commercials together. In one of the commercials, I got stopped on by a 60 foot woman and he got electrocuted by his sound system. He is an amazing actor, who can be seen all over TV

Pacific Bell

A Print Add and a Commercial! Double the Fun.

Ric Drasin: The Equalizer

I met Ric and his talented son Shane while doing a WHITE CASTLE Commercial. As you can see Ric and I get in the Ring sometimes.

Karen Morrow

A dear friend and teacher. She inspires me to achieve all that I can. What an amazing singer, actress, performer, teacher. I have sung in several of Karen's shows at the Cinegrill.

Play Review

The first play that I wrote "A Letter To Barbra"

Corey Allen

C.A. ... Corey Allen. He feels like the Grandfather I never met. For Five years I assisted Corey in his acting class and realized how wonderful it is to be in the moment.

James Helsing

We both went to San Francisco State and continue working on projects together. From the first time I saw him onstage in Caryl Churchill's "Cloud Nine" I knew this boy was talented. Now he is writing his 3rd full length feature and about to direct his first.

Open Season

There are seven issues of the comic book, OPEN SEASON. Director Dan Fogal got Jim Bricker to write a script for a Theatrical Version of his Comic Book. Everyone should play a cartoon at least once in their lives.

Ikea

I had always wanted to go to the Golden Arches and jump in one of those tubs of colored balls. Of course, I was "officially" too old for it. Unofficial I wasn't, and I got a job to sit in them for three hrs. How much fun. Now everyone half across the globe knows what I do in my spare time.

Ben Murphy

I met Ben Murphy while in Corey's Class. Ben has become a good friend and an inspiration.

Breckenridge Film Festival

What a wonderful Festival. Four days and Three nights of Films, Interviews (me in the center), Films, Parties, Films, and the Beautiful Colorado Mountains. John Lighten (Director of ONE OF US) and Alan Roberts (Editor of ONE OF US and Producer of FIGHTING WORDS) were there with me to share the memory. Breckenridge was one of the many Festivals that had ONE OF US as an official selection.
