About Me

"Leading the charge is newcomer George Katt, an actor who, if the fickle movie gods are just, will break out and breath fresh air into a young, American acting generation that is practically bereft of anyone with the smoldering yet sensitive intensity of a Brando or De Niro. Katt is able to portray street-smart grit and guile as well as moments of sublime gentleness. If one were to find a reasonable correlative to compare him to, a young Harvey Keitel springs to mind." - Independent Film Quarterly *"Katt dove into preparing for the difficult role head-first with an incredible focus and effort. He proved his worthiness by giving an emotionally-charged, daring performance – one to be remembered. Katt nailed the nuances of the character, giving range and depth to ‘Zeus’ that went beyond the written page. Katt’s brooding, raw, yet deeply emotional portrayal of the character ‘Zeus’ will surely be considered the consummate breakthrough role of his career…" - Jon Rosten (Director "Valley of Angels" /President LevelBlue Prods.)*

I'm an actor, writer, and musician (check out my music here on myspace - VenT - it's also in my top 8).

I am very passionate and dedicated to what I do - It's the only reason I froze my ass off in NYC and currently live in this shithole called LA.......
