When it was announced that Scott Sullivan had been voted "Most Talented" in his high school senior class his best friend looked at him and in all seriousness asked, "What talent do YOU have?" One could postulate that everything Scott does in this business is just a subconscious attempt to prove a point to Jim Sears. In addition to being an actor, Scott is a stand-up comic / magician / juggler who has performed all over the country and appeared on television, including ABC's "America's Funniest People", The Travel Channel and MTV. He's also written for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and has hosted his own popular morning radio show. He's also a filmmaker. Sullivan's first short film, Liberation, was named runner-up Best Short Film at the 2003 Midwest Entertainment Industry Film Festival and Teller (of Penn & Teller) said, "I loved Liberation. Very smart, funny, visual, and compact. A nice little haiku of a film." and his feature-length screenplay, High Moon, was named a semi-finalist (top 25 of more than 2000) in both the 2003 and 2002 Slamdance Screenwriting Contests and Slamdance Screenwriting Competition Director John Stoddard called it "The most original thing I've seen at Slamdance."
