Don't Be Alone with Jay Kogen

Actors Lawrence & David Pressman Explain Show Biz Is A Family That Jay Is Not Part Of


Listen Later

Father and son actors, Lawrence & David Pressman talk about their journeys to becoming actors, what it’s like to grow up in Kentucky vs Los Angeles, knowing acting was your calling from a young age, the problem with drinking, acting out when you are young, having your dad bribe you to quit showbiz, and getting blown up in Independence Day and getting yelled at by Elia Kazan. 

Bio: Lawrence Pressman was born in 1939 in Cynthiana, Kentucky. A graduate of Northwestern University, he has appeared in over 150 roles on the screen and stage. Including, “Shaft” “9 To 5” “American Pie” “The West Wing” and “Doogie Howser MD” where he played the series regular role of Dr. Benjamin Canfield. He is still unclear who Jay Kogen is.

David Pressman was born in New York City and was promptly whisked away to Sherman Oaks, California where he grew up.  He has appeared in a bunch of film and tv (ok fine, not as much as his dad) including “Independence Day” “Zoolander” “Tropic Thunder” “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” and the recurring role of Mr. Rusnak on the television series “Newhart”. His voice can currently be heard on episodes of Fox television's animated show, “Krapopolis”. David loves his dad.
