Stu Pollard, Writer-Director-Producer

A native of Louisville, KY, Stu graduated with a degree in business from Georgetown University in 1989. He spent three years toiling for McCann-Erickson advertising in Manhattan, then moved to LA in 1992 to attend film school at the University of Southern California.

Upon finishing at USC, he founded LUNACY UNLIMITED, a production company that dabbled in commercials, industrials, and high concept wedding videos (live gunfire, exploding reptiles, etc.). NICE GUYS SLEEP ALONE is Stu's first feature film. Is it an autobiography? "I don't know," he says, "I don't sleep."

Stu is currently splitting time between Louisville, KY, and Santa Monica, CA, as he edits his new film, a pscychological suspense drama entitled KEEP YOUR DISTANCE.
