Galinsky is certainly an industry expert as he has worked as an actor, writer, producer, and director and his resume is just too long to list here. He has acted in HBO’s Everyday People, Brooklyn Babylon, Knives In My Throat, and plays the lead in Hotel 5. Galinsky has both written and acted for TV in the pilot of Street Time, USA Network’s Gilbert Gottfried’s Up All Night”, and MTV’s Rock the Vote for which he was nominated for a Gold World Award.
