JAYSON: Josh Ryder
has been performing for imaginary audiences since the tender age of 3. At the age of 7 real people started showing up and paying attention. Josh has worked onstage, behind the stage, under the stage and precariously perched above the stage as well. He has also spent time in front of, behind and just off to the side of the camera. When he can find a spare moment, Josh also works in post production as a compositor and animator with his one man and two cat production company 4029 Designs. As an avid fan of both Tacos and the Virgin Mary, Josh's experiences working on Taco Mary have been both heavenly and high in calories.
