More about James Woolley:

Originally from Sydney, James arrived at Frameline with over 10 years' experience working at Australia's largest film festivals. This means he's watched way too many festival films - hundreds every year for a decade - and can recommend you some really good ones. Bring a notepad.

He was with Sydney Film Festival for 10 years, a time of huge growth for the organization, and left there as Head of Marketing and Customer Relations. He also was Festival Manager for 4 years of the Mardi Gras Film Festival, one of the top 10 largest LGBTQ+ film festivals in the world.

Curious about the plans for Frameline's future? Curious about what it took to create the world's largest virtual LGBTQ+ film festival? Simply need help planning your next Australian travel adventure? James is happy to chat to you about all these things and more.

More about Nadir Joshua:

Nadir Joshua was born and raised in Newark, New Jersey. He attended undergrad at Rutgers University, majoring in Political Science. Recognizing he had an interest in politics and law early in his academic career, he was accepted into the prestigious Columbia Law School in New York City and graduated in 2005. Nadir spent almost 10 years practicing employment law in New York before moving to San Francisco in 2014 for a role at Facebook.

In 2018, Nadir transitioned to a Business Lead (chief-of-staff) role at Facebook, supporting the Ads and Business Products team-- the team that builds products to help businesses connect with the people who use their products. Nadir transitioned into the Business Lead role because he enjoys operations and ultimately felt that he could impact the most number of people in that role, such has: helping leaders on his team meet strategic goals; assisting small businesses find their audience using Facebook's products; and ensuring people have delightful experiences finding business and their products on Facebook's platform.

Despite his career successes, Nadir isn't all work and no play. In fact, he's passionate about cinema, particularly Oscar nominated films (he commits to watching almost all the films each year). This passion for cinema sparked Nadir's interest in Frameline, where he's been President of the Board since 2019. Nadir is also inspired by fashion, which he finds as a true form of self-expression and creativity. In his spare time, he loves finding newer designers to support on Facebook and Instagram. Finally, Nadir loves to cook. Pre-COVID, he hosted monthly dinner parties in the Bay to build community. He looks forward to bringing those dinners back when it's safe to do so. He even makes a wicked Old Fashioned, and is always on the hunt for interesting people to drink one with...is that person you?!?

Yes, you read that correctly...Scott Evans. You know him as the hunk who usually plays the hunk on those shows that feature hunks. For example, Scott played the role of police officer Oliver Fish on the ABC daytime soap opera One Life to Live. Just how hunky is Scott? That role was originally written for 5 episodes. He returned for a total of 137 instead! And in Grace and Frankie, Scott's hunkiness tops off the rest of the cast of hunks, including Martin Sheen and Sol Bergstein.

Scott invites you to join him for a 30 min Zoom session to chat about just about anything, including acting, family, and life in the spotlight...

More about Scott Evans:

Scott Evans grew up in small town Massachusetts performing in more shows than he can count. He attended New York University's Tisch School of the Arts where he earned his BFA in Drama. Upon graduating he landed his first television role on the soap opera One Life to Live where he turned a 5 episode guest star part into a 4 year contract character. During his time in NY he worked on various film and TV projects including Guiding Light, Fringe, Law & Order, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Confessions of a Shopaholic and Rubicon. After moving to LA, his lucky streak continued and has been working in the entertainment industry ever since- landing roles on various projects such as Grace and Frankie, Daytime Divas, White Collar, Looking, Hit the Floor and more. He also co-produced the critically acclaimed web series Go-Go Boy Interrupted for which he helped raise $75,000 to make it happen. Keep an eye out for the upcoming feature Almost Love (fka Sell By) as well as the Hulu show Into the Dark.

When Scott isn't acting or playing dodgeball/kickball, fundraising/charity work are his main hobbies. Over the past 5 years Scott has raised over $100,000 dollars for various organizations. He has taught and raised money for the Concord Youth Theatre- a non-profit children's theatre in MA. He works with Cheshire Moon- an organization that raises money to help put arts back into middle schools. In addition, he has also raised money for ACLU, The Trevor Project, Suicide Prevention and HRC. He has taught theatre and dance to children since he was 16 and still does it today- so keeping people passionate about youth arts is something he cares deeply about."
