An NYU alumni, Jay DeYonker spent five years working in Prague where he was a principal member of the Prague Shakespeare Company. Back in New York, Jay signed with his team Malissa Young Management and BBR Talent, booking roles on CBS' FBI: MOST WANTED and FX's AMERICAN HORROR STORY, and the recently released, ZOMBIE WEDDING. With an all star cast including Cheri Oteri, Kevin Chamberlin, and Heather Matarazzo, the first feature from the Weekly World News Productions is this hilarious zombie spoof, available to rent or own on all digital platforms including Prime and AppleTV.
He has also produced and starred in multiple award-winning films including TRIPLE THREAT (Best Actor at the SOHO International Film Festival), HEAD (NewFest), and FOR YEARS TO COME (OutFest). FOR YEARS TO COME is an irreverent romantic dramedy about a gay man who falls in love with his dead mother's hospice nurse, while struggling to reconcile with his elderly father...who's secretly a porn director.
