Biography from TheMovieDB

Jay Dathaeus Lee is a professional actor residing in Palm Beach County, FL. He is also a multi-sport athlete, tennis/golf pro, and on the brainiac side, has a degree in Engineering from Boston University. He is also a graphics and web designer, IT professional and a psychology enthusiast that serves him well in all his teaching aspirations.  Jay grew up in Brooklyn, NY and moved with his family to Riverdale, NY through his junior and high school years. Then he attended Carnegie Mellon University, Manhattan College, and eventually Boston University, majoring in Mechanical Engineering.  After graduation, he worked as an independent IT/Web consultant and worked part time as a tennis professional at his former high school Horace Mann, and also at Stadium Tennis and the famed Roosevelt Island Racquet Club. Then he moved to Florida with aspirations of becoming a pro golfer in 2002 while teaching tennis. Throughout this time, he participated in a number of commercials, infomercials, movies, and TV shows as a supporting actor, featured and non-featured background roles.  Due to his Korean ethnicity and his athletic and well-built 6'3" 195 pound frame with talents in almost every mainstream sport in America, he fills a unique demographic that very few actors in the country can fill. He hopes to someday land an action role in film franchises such as "Mission Impossible," "Star Trek," "James Bond," "Bad Boys," and others.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
