JR Rappaport

JR Rappaport is a writer, director, and producer who graduated from USC's film school. He grew up in Massachusetts and lives in New York. He loves history, he loves the stage, and he loves the collaborative creative process of filmmaking. He was bedridden with an early childhood illness for nearly a year, during which time he fell in love with movies and knew that was what he wanted to do with his life. He is loathe to name a favorite film, but the picture he has watched the most times is Chungking Express.
