I was a Playboy Rabbit and Other Adventures is the first of many books based on Jeff's life. It chronicles the five year period in the 80's when he lived and worked in New York City to pursue his dreams.

Unhappy with his career in Los Angeles, Jeff moved to New York and worked as an actor, model and stand-up comedian. Little did he know this would all culminate with an opportunity to work with Playboy Enterprises and the iconic, legendary Hugh Hefner.

Jeff unknowingly would become the envy of every guy in Manhattan when he landed the job of being a Playboy Rabbit, the male version of the a Playboy Bunny at the world-famous Playboy Empire Club. Jeff would enjoy all the celebrity that would come from that position.

These are just a few of his interesting and often humorous stories.
