Harris sold his first screenplay to National Lampoon, and two days later became the client of a major agency, his next screenplay garnering a four picture deal at Disney. He went on to direct Where's Angelo starring Michael Madsen, Beverely D'Angelo and Robert Forster and realized that working with "people" on "sets" in the "real world" was more fun and satisfying than sitting in front of a laptop all day. The autobiographical Numb is his directorial feature debut, which recently premiered at The Tribeca Film Festival to four sold out performances.
