Jude Flori was born in Passaic, New Jersey USA, first generation to parents who emigrated during the Hungarian Revolution of 1956.  From the age of 5, she played with every camera Daddy owned from the vintage Polaroid Land camera to Kodak 35mm brownie to the Instamatic Movie camera without permission and with consequences.  The camera, film and writing are oxygen.

 

Jude's investigative journalism pressured the US Environmental Protection Agency to admit that MTBEs should be curtailed after a New Jersey Mobil station underground storage tank leaked and released a plume of Methyltertbutyl ether (MTBE) into the underground water supply.

Her bold and unique approach to storytelling has been seen through stills, writing and film as she Co-Directed/Co-Produced the controversial cable series pilot, "Hey Paisan!"  The film was an Official Selection of The New York International Independent Film & Video Festival, premiering at the Clearview Cinema in New York City, and shortly thereafter in Los Angeles, at the Vogue Theater.

 

Flori has had the honor of working alongside many industry professionals and celebrities and is currently working on an untitled film.
