Jack Truman

Son of a Stripper

<p>I am a filmmaker. I love to make films that shock people, open their eyes, make them think, talk and realize how different all of us are. That&#8217;s what makes this world so great: that all of us are free to be different. A 25 year veteran of stage and film, I&#8217;m an award-winning director, writer and actor, having also appeared in major television series and motion pictures. My film directorial debut, the short mockumentary <span class="caps">PHONE</span> <span class="caps">SEX</span> <span class="caps">GRANDMA</span>, premierered at the 2006 Slamdance Film Festival to standing-room only audiences. Since its hit Slamdance premiere, <span class="caps">PHONE</span> <span class="caps">SEX</span> <span class="caps">GRANDMA</span> has played over 40 fests to date, earning rave reviews. My new documentary short <span class="caps">THE</span> <span class="caps">OUTHOUSE</span> had its hit World Premiere at the 2008 Slamdance Film Festival. <span class="caps">OUTHOUSE</span> was part of Slamdance&#8217;s $99 short block. Slamdance gave me $99 to make a short under 5 minutes. To date, since January, <span class="caps">OUTHOUSE</span> has played over 15 fests worldwide. This is a perfect example of what someone can do with no money; when you envision something that no one else can see. Declare your independence. Make your voice be heard. The world deserves it.</p>
