Jeffrey Hirschberg
- Writer

After graduating from Cornell and earning a master's degree from Syracuse University's Newhouse School, Jeffrey spent ten soul-crushing years on Wall Street as a stockbroker, financial writer, and VP of marketing. Drained from overusing the word "synergy," he became a film professor and founding director of the Television and Film Arts program at SUNY Buffalo State University. Hoping to impress his parents, he wrote a book on heroes and villains and directed short films and a half-hour TV pilot that screened at major film festivals. A WGA member, Jeffrey sold a series to Showtime, was a winner of the WGA Screenplay Reading Series, directed the WGA's TV Pilots Resurrected program at Lincoln Center, and participated in the ABC Daytime Writer Development Program. His debut novel, COMPLETELY INCOMPLETE, arrives next year.
