Perseverance, talent, and attitude are a must in the entertainment industry! These characteristics are embodied by working character Actor Dennis Jay Funny. The Gemini and twin did not change his name to make people smile. His real surname is Funny, and everything Dennis Jay Funny (aka D.J. Funny) touches is serious business.

His father, Stephen studied Civil Engineering at NYU. He began his career on the World Trade Center construction team as a project engineer. The custom dress worn by the Miss North Carolina pageant winner, who went on to compete in the Miss America competition, was designed, sewn, and fitted by his mother, Rudi.

Dennis' father had recently been stationed at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Tacoma, Washington, when he and his twin (known as the Funny Twins) were born. They were raised in Westchester, New York. Dennis had a great time in high school. At Alexander Hamilton High School, he was elected "most popular" and "class clown" senior year and served as captain of the football and math teams.

After earning a perfect score in Algebra, a 95% in Geometry, and a 97% in Trigonometry on his New York State Regents final exams, the math standout received a scholarship to engineering powerhouse Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (rpi.edu), in Troy, New York where he studied Civil Engineering.

Director Oliver Stone utilized Shark player "#47's" acting talent and range in Dennis' debut movie, the sports epic "Any Given Sunday." Stone featured the New York character actor in the opening scene of his "World Trade Center" movie a few years later. The morning of September 11th, the hipster is seen on the subway platform.

A longstanding promoter of underground events in New York City, his amiable fame has developed a devoted following. Dennis a frequent traveler has made positive relationships all over the world.

This former Wall Streeter has dedicated his life to inspiring others. The only remnant of his white collar past is a trademark trail of cigar smoke left in his wake, though he claims he is cutting back. When asked, "What's next?" In response, he says, "Who knows? Anything can happen, Life is a wild ride!"

Pursuit of the spectacular is reckless business.

The Dream is Free, the Hustle is sold separately. Let my work speak for me.

You cherish people and use things, not the other way around.
