"Leading
the charge is newcomer George Katt, an actor who, if the fickle
movie gods are just, will break out and breathe fresh air
into a young, American acting generation that is practically
bereft of anyone with the smoldering yet sensitive intensity
of a Brando or De Niro. Katt is able to portray street-smart
grit and guile as well as moments of sublime gentleness. If
one were to find a reasonable correlative to compare him to,
a young Harvey Keitel springs to mind." - Todd Konrad,
Independent Film Quarterly
On
Television, George played the hilarious role of Zack on Showtime's
RUDE AWAKENING w/Sherilyn Fenn and Lynn Redgrave and has guest
starred in CBS' THE AGENCY w/Gil Bellows, CBS' BROOKLYN SOUTH,

and sings in his rock band VENT. His song "Monday"
is on the VALLEY OF ANGELS soundtrack.
