Harry Elfont, a talented writer and director, crossed paths with his future partner in crime, Deborah Kaplan, during their esteemed tenure at New York University's prestigious film school. What's more, fate played a peculiar trick, revealing that their parents shared a strong friendship, and to add an extra layer of serendipity, both Elfont and Kaplan had previously attended neighboring high schools in the City of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia. Over the years, this dynamic duo has co-created and co-directed a plethora of projects that have left an indelible mark on the world of entertainment, including the iconic film "Josie and the Pussycats", the coming-of-age comedy "Can't Hardly Wait", and the more recent digital series "Liza on Demand".
