I'd like to meet:
Writer/Director/Producer Jonathon E. Stewart sold his first multi-award winning indie feature as Director and Producer in 2007, Guy In Row Five, , and has been continuing to direct and write both feature and short form projects. Most recently, Stewart has been writing and producing short-form, original videos for the New York Times online company, About.com, and polishing up the second draft of a feature script with writing partner Eyal Podell, co-writer of their previous endeavor, Usonia. Having cut his teeth in Hollywood working in PSAs for the Humane Society and independent film after graduating from Dartmouth College, he snagged the award for BEST DIRECTOR at the San Francisco 48-Hour Film Festival in 2005. He went on to direct the music video "Gone" for the band Helmet, headliners of the "Warped Tour", which aired on MTV's Headbanger's Ball and was a MySpace.com exclusive in July 2006. In addition to writing Usonia with Podell, Stewart is developing a second picture to direct later this year. Stewart can also be seen strumming the guitar in the opening credits of The Sweetest Thing, and served as the Director of Development for production company Grover in CA from 2001 to 2005.
