Netflix Movies Starring Jim Youngs

Jim Youngs is a native of Old Bethpage, New York. Born the youngest of four siblings into an extraordinarily gifted family, Youngs was employed as a nightclub manager, a dance instructor, and a golf pro before he decided to try his hand at acting.Purely on a lark, Jim accompanied his older sister Gail to a Manhattan casting call for the sensational coming of age cult classic The Wanderers (1979), and was not only asked to audition for its iconic writer/director Philip Kaufman, but wound up landing a lead role in the film.
