Born and raised in Williamsburg Brooklyn, Max is the son of a modern dancer and downtown theater director - who for better or worse, were some of the first hipsters in the hood. A graduate of McGill University and The Juilliard School of Drama, Max founded Backyart (along with his sister Lia, and now-wife, Maria Simeone), a multi-disciplinary arts event that presented work from over 250+ individual artists and collectives during its 3 year life span. Max is currently the President of G44/Backyart Productions, a production company which to date has produced multiple short films, web series, commercials, exhibition videos, and produced and starred in his first feature film, currently in post-production.
