Bio: A Filmmaker/Actor/Musician based in Chicago, Illinois - James has been in the Entertainment business since age 15 when he launched his self-produced Cable Show "ZTV". Running for over 40 episodes, Zahn welcomed guests such as Megadeth, Stone Temple Pilots, Faith No More, and White Zombie to his show, which combined sketch comedy and band interviews.
Forging ahead into adulthood, James has worked on projects for several major studios and has spent the past three years developing his genre-bending Trilogy "Death Walks the Streets."
In late 2007, he also appeared in the indie "Lonely Joe" and he cut the comedic short "Megatron's True Motivation" which appeared on G4TV during their "Transformers" promotion. In it, James provided voices for several famous Transformer characters including Megatron, Starscream, and Scrapper.
James has entered 2008 hellbent on bringing the first chapter of "Death Walks the Streets" to the screen, along with it's already-written sequel, and comic book prequel close behind. He is currently working with a producers rep on the project, and just may use IndieGoGo to raise some funds as well!
This is a 30-second teaser for a prequel comic book series based on my in-development feature film "Death Walks the Streets"

From my acting reel: This is a 30-second clip of Michelle Connelly (played by Erica Leerhsen) and Steve Ford (played by me - James Zahn) having a conversation regarding the events that took place on the property formerly owned by Joe Gainard (played by David Fine). "Lonely Joe" is currently in post-production and should see a late 2008 release.
