Patrick was born in 1967. As a child he fell under the spell of The Movies and the magic of classic Hollywood. He has kept a list of every movie he has seen in theaters since 1979 when he was a rather precocious lad of twelve. Patrick currently resides in Brooklyn but spent his formative years working as a baker at Sarkozy Bakery in Kalamazoo. His dream is to one day personally bake a loaf of challah for Barbra Streisand.

His personal top ten films of all time:

1. The Wizard of Oz
2. Gone With the Wind
3. A Streetcar Named Desire
4. Casablanca
5. Auntie Mame
6. Jaws
7. Sunset Boulevard
8. It's a Wonderful Life
9. To Kill a Mockingbird
10. Apocalypse Now
