Jason Leavy

Cast · Producer · Known for Terrifier, Terrifier 2

The path that Jason Leavy has taken to get to this point has been very similar to that of his older brother Michael Leavy. Jason has been at his brother's side from the beginning and will be to the end. Nothing to this point would have been possible without Jason's willingness to help and do whatever is asked of him in order to better the project. Jason plays a large role in rounding out the Fuzz on the Lens team, because whereas Steven Della Salla and Mike Leavy approach filmmaking more from the production standpoint, Jason approaches filmmaking more from an acting standpoint. He brings a different character driven perspective that is necessary to push our creativity and writing to a new level. Like his brother, Jason excels both behind the camera as well as in front of it. He was Michael's successor at Monsignor Farrell's television studio, WFBN-TV. He ran the studio and anchored the show each morning. Once he graduated, Jason went on to Kean University where he is studied to get his Bachelor's Degree in Communications with a concentration in TV & Film.

Dolores Dorn

Some actresses have entered films via the stage while others walked the path of a successful modelling career. Dolores Dorn managed to straddle both, by being a graduate of Chicago's Goodman Art Theatre as well as having been a former place-getter (second and third, respectively, in 1950 and 1951) at the annual Miss Chicago contest. A blonde beauty with a sunny smile, she was also voted 'Miss Photoflash' of 1951 by the Chicago Press Photographers Association. She was born Dolores Heft in 1933 (some sources mistakenly cite 1934) in Chicago, of mostly Lithuanian descent, the only child of a well-to-do automobile dealer, Edward Heft, and his wife, Alice. She first headlined before the footlights at the Chez Paris nightclub. In 1954, she joined the Schaffner Players repertory comedy troupe as "lead ingénue" on tour through Illinois, Missouri, and Iowa. At some point she was spotted by a Warner Brothers talent scout while sipping soda at a drug store. This led to her first (minor) film role in Phantom of the Rue Morgue (1954) as one of the beast's murder victims, to be followed by a second-billed part in the Randolph Scott western The Bounty Hunter (1954). Dolores Dorn made her New York stage debut in 1956 in Chekhov's 'Uncle Vanya' at the Fourth Street Theatre. A year later she also played the part of Yelena Andreyevna in the subsequent film version (opposite future husband Franchot Tone who was 29 years her senior). Having attracted the attention of studio execs with an off-Broadway performance in 'Between two Thieves', she was signed by director Samuel Fuller to a Columbia contract. Her first notable starring role for the studio was in Underworld U.S.A. (1961), for which she was cast as gangster's moll "Cuddles", romantic interest to Cliff Robertson's revenge-seeking ex-convict. She was billed, unlike on Broadway, as simply Dolores Dorn. Her last noteworthy fling at the big screen was in 13 West Street (1962), a fashionable melodrama about teenage delinquency in which she co-starred with Alan Ladd. During the late 1960s, Dorn focused on stage endeavors around New York and Los Angeles. There were also a few TV guest appearances to follow between 1973 and 1985, but that was pretty much it. However, behind the cameras, she worked as an acting teacher at the American Film Institute (1977), the Lee Strasberg Institute (1983) and as acting coach for the reality television game show Star Search (1983). - IMDb mini biography by: I.S.Mowis

Lana Young

Cast · Known for Southpaw

Lana comes from the beautiful island of Bermuda where her love for acting began. As a little girl sitting in the movie theater watching ORCA, she thought, I want to be up on that screen. But making a living as an actor in a small Island like Bermuda is not an option. So, she got caught up in the corporate world and found herself navigating the challenges of being a 20 something woman working on a trading desk at an investment company full of men. She sought out sanity and solace in the local theatre world and her love for acting bloomed. At 28 the universe intervened and decided it was time to change course and she found herself in Boston. There she was cast in her first film, a one woman show and an adaptation of Checkov's "The Lady With The Pet Dog" at the Leland Center all while still working in the corporate world. But these life changing acting opportunities set her on the path of acting as a career. After a life changing event, she decided that she had the gift of a fresh, new start and decided that this was the time to pursue acting for real. At 33 she moved to London where she received her Masters in Acting at the Arts Educational School of London. Some of her performances while there include Phyllis in Bernard Shaw's "The Philanderer", Lady 'you know who' in that Scottish Play by Shakespeare, Lona Hessel in an adaptation of Iben's "Pillars of The Community" and "The Graduate" at The New Vic Theatre with Charity Wakefield. She then moved to Los Angeles where she fell into the arms of the Classical Theatre Lab and spread her wings. It was a difficult time in her fledgling career. It was early 2000s and casting wasn't very representative of what the world actually looked like and as a mixed race actress in her 30s, auditions were very few and far between. In her 5 years there, she managed to book her first TV gig on Zoey 101, her first National commercial (Cricket Wireless with Jessica Sanchez) and an exciting supporting role in the independent film "Beginners" with Christopher Plummer and Ewan McGregor. But it wasn't enough to keep her fire alive and it was time to take a break and regroup. She moved to Charlottesville VA and opened an acting school for kids and adults called the Hollywood Theatre Lab (teaching life skills through acting). It was an exciting time. Charlottesville welcomed her with open arms and the school grew rapidly with so much support. She was able to keep the machine well oiled by working on indie films shot there.
