About Me

I am a pretty interesting dude. I grew up in Brooklyn in a bad ass neighborhood. Didn't have too much fun growing up. In fact, it sucked. Became a singer and then entered into acting. Did more acting than singing. Did a series called Vegas. Did all kinds of things. Became a coach and acting teacher and always had small classes because I hated ripping off actors and play the bullshit Hollywood game. Owned restaurants, an ice cream company. Brought frozen yoghurt to California and had one of the first of two stores in California. It's a long story on how that happened. I gave up teaching. Too many STARS in California. Now I'm back to my first love, the music business. Would love to own a club and a theatre. Together. Music on one side and live theatre on the other. Awesome. I am also a writer. Have a book out. It's pretty revolutionary."Why Men Die Before Women and How to Prevent it".It details exercises men can do to reverse the trend of growing fucked up in our society. Gave a seminar in Palm Springs in October and got an incredible reception. Also have been a guest speaker at AFI/ Sag Conservatory recently(twice). So I'm having fun. Can't wait for the book to come out. I think it will help a lot of people. You see, I learned alot in my struggle to becoming a whole human being. I beat alcohol, drugs and all that shit. And I have a lot to say to people to make life an easier struggle than we put ourselves through. And that's my goal. That's my legacy. To help people. Sounds like bullshit, but it's not. So stay tuned. Life goes on.
