CURRENT NEWS

POSITIVE - Filmed this weekend. I played the lead for the short film with the title - Positive. The story is of an alcohlic mother who faces her demons and becomes sober after she assaults her pregnant daughter. It was a great shoot and I worked with an excellent actress. Good chemistry.

THE LA PARTY FOR HOLY HEADSHOT was a HIT! A good time and lots of laughs for everyone. Congratulations to everyone. We performed on stage at the Steven Allen Theater. HOLY HEADSHOT!: Simon and Schuster is publishing Holy Headshot! A Celebration of America's Undiscovered Talent on October 28th 2008. I am PROUD to say that my headshot and resume were accepted and my photo is included on the cover page. Let's tell you more.... A Celebration of America's Undiscovered Talent by Patrick Borelli and Douglas Gorenstein, is an amazing, authentic collection of some of the funniest, strangest, most captivating performers' headshots and resumes. The book throws open the door to the casting director's office for an entertaining peek into the incredible - and sometimes bizarre - world of show business. Borelli, a comedian and writer, and Gorenstein, an actor and professional headshot photographer, pored over 50,000 headshots to put together this remarkable gallery, which showcases everyone from aspiring amateurs with big-time dreams to seasoned, recognizable professionals. With shows like American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance, and America's Got Talent dominating the airwaves, it seems less and less unrealistic to think: I could be a star if only given the chance. A celebration of this national obsession with getting famous, HOLY HEADSHOT! offers plenty of "What were they thinking!?" hilarity. Just as often, though, you'll find yourself rooting for some of the book's incredible characters, like Sybil Presley (aka "The Tennessee Stressbuster"), Jack "Cyclone" Silfen, Jade Esteban Estrada (aka "The Prince of Pride"), and many others. Each headshot in this extraordinary collection is a gem in its own right, but the resumes are veritable treasure troves of hidden talent. For instance, immediately we learn that Father Hannibal D. Bey ("Grand Master Priest Faustus") began his career by imitating the famous 80s dance move "the Robot." But it might require a second glance at his resume to notice that he is "recognized as an Artist rather than a Popper." Shayna the Juggling Entertaina is living proof that it's never too late in life to learn how to juggle. These people know that there are a million ways to become famous nowadays, but it all starts with a headshot and a resume. HOLY HEADSHOT! is a collection of some of the all-time best.
