NEW YORK - Producer Barry Josephson, who once option Julian Assange’s biography seemed to share with Assange a love for women.
According to Kim Masters’ and Nancy Griffin’s 1997 book, ‘Hit and Run’ when Josephson worked for producer Joel Silver, he was respectfully known as “the vice president of chicks and clubs,” reports the New York Post.
The book says that he took great care with his appearance and projected a hardworking professional image by day. By night, however, he partied with models while telling friends he was lonely and wanted to marry a nice girl.
It added that while helping cast female extras in ‘Last Action Hero,’ Josephson “scrutinized Polaroids, met women and occasionally asked one for her phone number.”
Josephson told us, “All material attributed to me in ‘Hit and Run’ was unattributable, inaccurate and fictional.” (ANI)
