About Jeffrey

Actor, puppeteer, writer and voice-over artist, Jeffrey Breslauer was born in the Bronx and raised in Levittown, Long Island. After graduating with a degree in Broadcasting from Hofstra University, Jeff began his performance career in New York in the mid-1970s. His puppeteering work can be seen in "The Muppets Take Manhattan" and "The Muppets at Walt Disney World." At EPCOT, in Walt Disney World, Jeff played "The Dreamfinder," manipulating "Figment," the little dragon star of "Journey into Imagination. He also voiced and manipulated the "Spider" puppet mascot for Scholastic Publishers' video series of "Math Place Programs" for first and second grades. His vocal talents have been heard in commercials, industrials, TV shows, audiobooks and theme parks as everything from a termite to a cartoon super hero. One of his personal favorites was voicing "The Joker" for the Batman Stunt Shows at Six Flags Amusement Parks. Jeff had the pleasure of adding over a dozen voices to his audio repertoire when he performed the audio book versions of Glenda C. Finkelstein's sci-fi novels, "The Edge of the Universe", and "Nemesis Rising". He also voiced and narrated the sci-fi/comedy audiobook trilogy "Cheese Runners", "Cheese Rustlers" and "Cheese Lords" all written by Chris Jackson. Another special project Jeff participated in is Sounds Abound© On All Hallow's Eve, a spellbinding aural feast created with his partners at JMJ Entertainment, Jeff Evans and Mark Priest. In addition to performing on stage in such plays as "Breaking Legs", with Frank Gorshin (TV's "Riddler"), Jeff's work has graced several popular themed attractions in Orlando, Florida, including Walt Disney World, Sleuths Mystery Dinner Theatre (as everything from a detective to a maid to a stuttering florist), and Arabian Nights (as the Genie). Jeff's on-screen work includes; "Police Academy V", "Matinee", "Wiseguy", "Superboy", "Swamp Thing", the Showtime movie, "Trade Off", the Mickey Rooney film, "Michael Kael vs. The World News Company", "Doctor Who: A Survivor's Triangle", the HBO film, "Recount" starring Kevin Spacey and Laura Dern, and, recently, playing a Russian bad guy in the pilot episode of the new TV show, "Terminal Kill". As a writer, Jeff is very proud of his published children's book entitled, "Abner the Clown". Brightly and brilliantly illustrated by Linda Campbell, the book tells the tale of Abner as he relates to children, in rhyme, about his low self-esteem. The picture book goes on to describe how Abner's friends help him to be proud of himself, and that they love him for who he is. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Jeff has been very busy writing screenplays. One being a period piece about a young Jewish girl’s first job experience in the waning days of WW2. Another, is an action/adventure about a very extraordinary circus troupe. And, a third, which Jeff wrote in collaboration with two others, is a post Vietnam war story about a former soldier’s efforts to re-enter civilian life.
