Judge Reinhold

Judge has been seen in over seventy-five motion picture and television projects and enjoys a twenty-five year relationship with an audience of all ages. His many films include Stripes, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Beverly Hills Cop (1,2,3), Ruthless People, and Disney’s box office hit The Santa Clause (1,2,3), which is the most successful Christmas franchise of all time. His cumulative box office average ranks him the 50th highest grossing actor of all time (the-movie-times.com).

Judge received an Emmy nomination for his performance as “the close talker” on Seinfeld (which was one of the most viewed episodes with a 20.7 share). His appearance in one of the final episodes of Arrested Development also received one of the show’s highest ratings. More recently, Judge co-starred with Kevin Costner in the political satire, Swing Vote

Judge and his wife, Amy, are co-founders of A Barking Catfish Productions. They are currently developing the upcoming feature film, Cabrini Green, written by Angelo Pizzo (Hoosiers and Rudy) and Pulitzer-Prize winning playwright, Suzan-Lori Parks, with Todd Wagner and Mark Cuban’s 2929 Productions. Amy and Judge are also producing two family comedies with Academy Award winning producer, Mark Johnson (Rainman, The Natural, The Notebook, Chronicles of Narnia). One is based on the hilarious true story of Ray Wallace, the man who created the “Bigfoot” hoax in 1958. The second is The King and Me, a father & son family comedy, told in Mark Twain style, set in the world of competitive bass fishing. In television, they have created and are producing series, specials and documentaries.

Brad Leland

Brad Leland's long and wide-ranging career has included roles in such feature films as Hancock; Friday Night Lights; Walking Tall II; The Return; Dr. T. and the Women; and Born on the Fourth of July.

Brad is one of the stars of the critially-acclaimed ABC series Friday Night Lights, playing the role of Buddy Garrity. Shooting for the new season begins in August in Austin, and it's rumored that Peter Berg — director of the feature film — may direct the series' season premiere.

His television work also includes roles on Comanche Moon; In the Heat of the Night; and Walker, Texas Ranger (8 episodes).

In 2009, Brad also shot Trauma, NBC's new series set in San Francisco, and performed voice-over for a character in the new spin-off of The Cleveland Show!

He has also been busy with speaking engagements and participating in celebrity golf tournaments in Florida, Cancun and the Southwest.

Brad and Kyle Chandler are hosts of the "Beyond the Lights Celebrity Golf Classic," only the second "green" and carbon neutral celebrity golf tournament in the United States. Organizers have committed themselves to being environmentally aware in the planning of the event and through their choices of supplies and vendors, and working with MoveNeutral.com to estimate the "carbon footprint" arising from venue energy use, vehicle consumptions, and player and attendee travel. The Tournament and MoveNeutral then negate the impact of these estimated emissions by purchasing 50 short tons of "carbon offsets" from NativeEnergy. These offsets are used to support American-owned renewable energy projects, thereby curbing future carbon emissions. The tournament also applies more mainstream environmentally friendly products and concepts to its golf event.

The event chose the Wolfdancer Golf Club because it is a member of the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program for Golf Courses. The program helps golf courses protect the environment while preserving the natural heritage of the game of golf. Wolfdancer works closely with the Lower Colorado River Authority, which runs the McKinney Roughs Nature Park adjacent to the course, to ensure the integrity and longevity of the river.

The 2008 tournament featured a private performance by "Friday Night Lights" feature film actor and country superstar Tim McGraw.

The event benefits the Gridiron Heroes and the Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis/The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis.

John McCalmont

John could very well be the best definition of a modern Renaissance man. He is an active outdoorsman and semipro tournament bass fisherman. He is an accomplished television producer/director and editor, veteran actor in television and film, a former radio personality, and professional voice talent. He put himself through college on a music scholarship, raced motorcycles in Los Angeles for fun, and recently planted a garden in his front yard in Heath, Texas were he calls home.

Currently John is the Host of SLICED on the History Channel and Bass Champs on The World Fishing Network, he has also hosted such national TV shows as “Designing Spaces,” “Real House,” and “Angler Stories,” Theatrical credits include co-star appearances in multiple “Walker Texas Ranger” episodes, “Prison Break,” and “The Evening Star” among others. He also works on a daily basis from his personal studio behind a microphone voicing national campaigns, television promos and radio imaging.

On the other side of the camera John has produced, directed or edited over 500 films, television shows and commercials, including the first 2 seasons of “Cheaters” (now in syndication), Sundance finalist “Delusions in Modern Primitivism” and the “Skeeter Bass Champs” television show – the first high-definition competition fishing show ever shot and aired in HD, and still in production after 7 seasons and 100 episodes.

John considers his on-camera and voice work his passion. He believes that all of his experiences behind the camera as a producer/director and editor have given him a unique perspective as a performer. He understands what is expected from all sides of a production and actively participates in bringing about a successful outcome.

For John, faith, his wife, two beautiful daughters, and his friends come first in life. He credits his success to his strong family support, his personal values and the work ethic he learned from his parents and grandparents.

“Smart. Talented. Stunning. Those are the words that first come to mind when I think of Kimberly Schlegel Whitman.

Sheree J. Wilson

Sheree’s start in show business, a career she secretly always wanted, happened by a lucky mistake. She attended the University of Colorado at Boulder and received a degree in fashion merchandising and business in 1981. Shortly after graduation, while working in Denver on a fashion shoot, one of the photographers thought Sheree was the model. He introduced her to Wilhelmina, the modeling agent from New York, who signed her on the spot. Sheree promptly moved to Manhattan and within eighteen months, had appeared in over thirty commercial campaigns for Clairol, Sea Breeze, Keri-Lotion and Maybelline. Her print work ran in such popular magazines as Mademoiselle, Glamour and Redbook.

After three years of modeling, Sheree's agent, Vicki Light, called her with an audition in a feature film, urging her to move to Los Angeles. She won the starring role, opposite Louise Lasser, Brian James and Reed Burney, in "Crimewave, a 1984 black comedy directed by Sam Raimi. Three days after that film wrapped, she was cast in “Velvet,” an ABC/Aaron Spelling MOW/series pilot, in which she played a female “James Bond” character opposite Shari Belafonte. Within the next year, she had a lead with Tim Robbins in "Fraternity Vacation", a summer comedy in which she played a intellectual beauty who was the object of everyone’s desire.

Producers began to take notice of this dynamic newcomer to Hollywood, and soon she starred in the 1985 CBS television miniseries “Kane & Abel,” with Peter Strauss. This immediately led to “Our Family Honor,” a CBS drama about Irish cops vs. the Mafia, in which she starred with Ray Liotta, Michael Madsen and Eli Wallach. Her career continued to grow including “News at Eleven” and “Power Play.” And then, in 1986, television producer Leonard Katzman called Sheree to talk about a part he thought was tailor-made for someone with her classic beauty and sassy, fun-loving, energetic nature.

Sheree may be best known for her role as April Stevens on the CBS mega-hit series “Dallas.” For five seasons (1986-1991), she played a brainy, wealthy femme fatale who, in her words, was “a bitch on wheels.” Her character went from being one of the most powerful women in Dallas and J.R. Ewing’s nemesis, to being one of the warmest characters in town, eventually marrying Bobby Ewing, the show’s ultimate good guy. Ultimately, April Stevens was gunned down during her honeymoon in Paris. Bowing out with a bang, Wilson’s performance earned her the “Soap Opera Digest Award” for Best Death Scene.

In fact, Sheree was pregnant and wanted to leave in order to fully devote herself to motherhood. At the end of that year, in 1992, she signed to do the lead female role in “Walker, Texas Ranger,” opposite Chuck Norris. Also in that year, she starred in the Showtime movie "Past Tense".

The daughter of two IBM executives, Sheree was born in Minnesota and moved to Colorado at the age of nine, where she learned to ride horses. Her superb equestrian skills won her first place riding cutting horses in the 1995 National Multiple Sclerosis Rodeo.

Currently, Sheree resides in Los Angeles.

Mattie Roberts

Mattie Roberts has made a career out of encouraging women—and many men—to "unleash their inner divas." Mattie passes along advice from chefs and showgirls; doctors and drag queens (they do have the best beauty tips, after all) with equal enthusiasm. She's all about helping people become as glamorous as they can possibly stand to be.

She is a frequent contributor to FoxNews.com Strategy Room and represents women everywhere who are “Fabulous Over Forty” on Fox News' FNCiMag.com.

Mattie began her career in television after a short stint at SMU law school. Mattie's first job at the anchor desk was at KXII in Sherman, TX, but her real love of television blossomed when she started writing and producing her own segments on living a healthy, vibrant life.

This took her on a path to New York City where she reported for MSNBC, The Discovery Channel and made appearances on "The View". During this time she also owned a highly successful yoga studio.

Mike Thornton

Mike Thornton has been transforming lives for more than a decade. And while "transformations" are serious business, you won’t find Mike taking himself too seriously as he combines a fiery motivational style with a comedic flare for the dramatic. Whether he’s delivering a speech or leading a fitness class, Mike disarms his audience with sincerity, humor, and storytelling to create a receptive environment that moves people closer to the changes they desire in their lives. He may even burst into song!

Having little to no success with the quick-fix fitness approaches that were out there, in 1998, Mike began to research the most effective and lasting weight loss strategies that he could find. After shedding 30 lbs and graduating with a degree in Business Administration, Mike decided to make helping others with their fitness struggles his business. In 2001, he started Dallas-based Fitness Now LLC.
