Born and raised in Los Angeles, Max is known for his award-winning short films and digital series, like “Bus Stop Shorts,” which garnered praise for its poetic portrayal of a man masturbating at a bus stop with a bag on his head. His films have screened at festivals nationwide, several of which have premiered online on NoBudge. A classically trained actor who lost out on parts in “Spider-Man,” “A Nightmare on Elm Street,” “Jennifer’s Body” and several unaired pilots, Max was most recently seen in an NFL commercial with Deion Sanders and Jake from State Farm that helped pay for a short vacation. He is currently developing his first feature film, "Auxiliary Man" starring Lewis Pullman, Gideon Adlon and Ron Perlman. In his free time, he can be found frantically rearranging his DVD collection and waiting tables to maintain his health insurance.
