Jeffrey Willerth
Diversity. That�s the one word description for Jeffrey Willerth�s career.
Jeffrey is a co-owner in FarPoint media and co-host of the Babylon Podcast.
His first producing gig was a sports game show for closed-circuit college television. Armed with a degree in Broadcast Management, Jeffrey entered the entertainment industry as a radio disc-jockey and copywriter. After five years on the airwaves in medium markets, his childhood passion for auto racing accelerated as Jeffrey focused on media relations in the automotive and motorsport industry. He developed and executed successful print, radio and tv marketing campaigns for companies that needed exposure with ESPN, TNN, PRIME, MTV Sports and others. This established a solid foothold for him as a field and segment producer and honed an ability to think quickly and work efficiently.
Shifting gears, Jeffrey joined an elite group who had the privilege to work on Warner Bros. sci-fi hit "Babylon 5" for all five seasons of the show's prime-time production. His versatile talents expanded into acting while playing the recurring role of Ambassador Kosh. Jeffrey was also the Producer's Associate through the fourth and fifth seasons, four TNT movies and three episodes of the spin-off series "Babylon 5: Crusade".
Since B5, Jeffrey furthered his digital filmmaking experience as a Visual Effects Coordinator for the Twentieth Century Fox feature film "X-MEN 2" as well as two Miramax's films, "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer" and "The Faculty".
His recent non-fiction programming credits include Supervising Producer of "Celebrities in Uniform" for Discovery�s Military Chanel, "Mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle" for History Channel, Producer of BBC�s "TopGear" for Discovery Channel, "Modern Marvels", "UFO Files" and "History Alive: UFO's" for the History Channel; Producer of "Race of the Century" airing on PBS stations, and Writer/Producer of "Ground Rules!" for HGTV and "Makeover Mamas" on A&E.; Other titles for television series and specials are Coordinating Producer for History Channel and Animal Planet; Associate Producer for FOX; Segment Producer on A&E; and HGTV.
Currently, he is developing new television, film and multimedia programs for his production company, Erthbound Entertainment. Jeffrey Willerth is a member of the (PGA) Producers Guild of America, (IFP/W) Independent Feature Project/West (SAG) Screen Actors Guild and the (ATAS) Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
