Henry Jaglom trained with Lee Strasberg at The Actor’s Studio in New York, where he acted, wrote, and directed plays.  And at age 21, he was best friends with an equally young Richard Pryor, as both struggled to break into stand-up comedy.

Henry went to Hollywood to become famous. After appearing in TV series like, “The Flying Nun,” Henry wanted more and worked with Jack Nicholson to edit the movie, “Easy Rider.” Easy Rider’s game-changing success launched Henry into a filmmaking career that continues today. He's written and directed 21 films, including “A Safe Place”, “Sitting Ducks”, “Tracks”, “Can She Bake a Cherry Pie,” and “Train to Zakopané.” He worked with Hollywood greats like Lee Grant, Maximillian Schell, Dennis Hopper, Roddy McDowell, Vanessa Redgrave, Faye Dunaway, David Duchovny.

Henry made three movies with his best friend, Orson Welles. Their recorded, weekly lunches at Hollywood’s “Ma Maison” resulted in Peter Baskind’s revealing book,  “My Lunches with Orson.”
