Jeffrey was the co-writer of a one hour televison drama
that aired on NBC called De La Salle, starring the voices
of Edward James Olmos and Lynn Whitfield. The special was
based on the real school of the same name in Manhattan that
serves academically talented children from low-income families.
We used the real kids and faculty as actors.
His new award-winning feature film "Face To Face" that he
wrote with actor Scott Baio made it's world premiere at the
Taos, New Mexico Talking Picture Film Festival where it was
honored, and feted as the opening night film. It stars Dean
Stockwell, Alex Rocco, Joe (Analyze This) Viterelli, Thomas
(Melrose Place) Calabro, Scott Baio,and Madchen (Twin Peaks)
Amick. It's about three young male cousins in a close-knit
Italian family who are tired of their fathers not opening
up to them emotionally. Out of desperation, they kidnap their
own fathers for a week-end of forced male bonding. It's funny
and touching at the same time. It has since won for Best Comedy
Feature at the Marco Island Film Festival in Florida, and
was featured at festivals in Oregon, Palm Springs, Reno, and
Sedona, Arizona.
He is currently a "reporter" for Weekly World News
where he writes unusual stories like " Tap Dancing For
The Criminally Insane", "Man Slips On Pat Of Butter,
Winds Up In Next Town", and "Top Model Has Abdominal
Organs Removed for Thinner Look." He also has his own column entitled "Gurian's World of the Bizarre."
