Biography
Jack Dorfman got his start in film at age 8 by taking his parents' home camcorder and accidentally taping over all their home movies.

He’s directed and edited films that have gone on to be featured in Raindance, Denver Film Festival, Chelsea Film Festival, Ouray International Film Festival, and more, including a short film adaptation of the NY Times Critics' Pick play Stalking the Bogeyman.
