ANDREW JACKSON
Andrew Jackson served as actor Jeff Bridges’ Development Associate at AsIs Productions and currently writes celebrity biographies for The New York Times’ Studio System, the leading online database and research service for the film and television industries. He has written for Yahoo! Movies, music magazines such as Burn Lounge and Mean Streets, and copy edited the Hollywood monthly Ingenue. He also directed and co-wrote the feature film The Discontents (2004) starring Perry King and Amy Madigan.
Born in Detroit, Michigan, he played drums in garage bands before heading to Boston to graduate from Emerson College. After seeing Yellow Submarine on TV at age 4 he became a confirmed Beatlemaniac, which years later has now resulted in his first book, Still the Greatest: The 200 Best Solo Beatle Songs. The guide spotlights the best tunes by John, Paul, George, and Ringo from 1970 to 2010, giving each a 1 to 2 page entry covering the story behind the music, the people, and the times.
