   Geoff's Blurbs
About me:
Born in Northern California (a little suburb of San Francisco called Moraga) I spent 4 Years in Upstate NY for School (Ithaca College), then after a brief stint in LA I moved to Portland (in 1993), where I've been ever since (and love it).

From 1999-2007 I ran DVDTalk.com online magazine that helps people figure out what to watch on DVD. I sold that in late 2007 and am now devoting my time to working with Indepenent Film and other things close to my heart.

I'm also involved with local theater where I act, write and direct.

Some creative influences: Spalding Gray, Martin Scorsese, Joan Miro, Bill Viola, Miranda July, Chuck Palahniuk, Scott Spencer

NOTE:
If you're looking to connect with me as a friend of DVD Talk please do so at my DVD Talk Myspace Profile.

Who I'd like to meet:
Fellow Portlanders, people active in the arts and theater in Portland, Vegans and possible friends.

You rocked the show pretty hard yourself, sir. It was a monumental pleasure to be able to work with you on HFH2. Hopefully, we can do something together soon.
