NEXT SCREENINGS

"Lucky Jack," the film I executive produced, will be showcased at the Garden State Film Festival on closing night, Sunday March 29, at 2:45pm.

The film follows the story of my father, a 30-year-old high school dropout from a dysfunctional family in the Newark projects, who in 1966 was an unemployed, part-time pizza delivery man with a wife and two children. He smoked a joint, put on Man of La Mancha's "Impossible Dream," looked in the mirror, and resolved to become a brain surgeon.

A 40-year odyssey had begun to transform a pizza deliveryman into a medical professional, serving as a testament to the power of resilience and the human spirit's capacity for growth. See the media interviews to the left about the film.

Tickets can be purchased here.
