Nate Golon

Nate has worn various hats during his time in Los Angeles, as a writer, director, producer and actor. His success as a writer/producer/actor began with his online scripted comedic series, WORKSHOP, which was nominated for 16 web awards. Season 2 of WORKSHOP is the first ever independently produced half-hour comedy to air on Hulu. Nate is the creator and executive producer of the series, and one of the stars of the show. Shortly after WORKSHOP, Nate released his neo-noir short film, BRIEFCASE, which found immediate critical success, and was featured on over 75 film sites worldwide. Netflix licensed BRIEFCASE for worldwide marketing and advertising use. Nate's second comedic online series, MY SYNTHESIZED LIFE, marked Nate's directorial debut, in addition to being executive producer and a recurring character in the show. MY SYNTHESIZED LIFE was nominated for four web awards, and garnered Nate a Best Director nomination. After the release of MY SYNTHESIZED LIFE, Nate sold everything and took a job teaching English in a small country town in southern Japan. Upon his return, Nate wrote his first book, JOURNEY OF SELF: SIX MONTHS IN THE JAPANESE COUNTRYSIDE, which immediately became a #1 bestseller on Amazon. JOURNEY OF SELF: SIX MONTHS IN THE JAPANESE COUNTRYSIDE has recently been optioned. Nate has since written three other books: WAITING ON THE MOON, a young adult dystopian sci-fi novel; POOR CONDITION, a young adult contemporary coming-of-age novel; and 22 ORIGINAL MODERN MONOLOGUES FOR ACTORS AND ACTRESSES. Nate has been written up by TV Guide and Backstage, and has been a featured speaker at SAG-AFTRA three times. Nate's national fraternity, Phi Delta Theta, has featured him in their Road to Greatness campaign, and his alma mater, Colorado State University, has written Nate up in their alumni spotlight program. Nate was recently been honored by the City of Los Angeles for his volunteer efforts with the inner-city literacy organization, United Voices of Literacy.
