Jeff Dowd (born November 20, 1949) is an American film producer and political activist best known as a member of the "Seattle Seven," who went to jail (briefly, for contempt of court) following a violent protest against the Vietnam war. He later moved to Los Angeles and became an independent movie producer and promoter, producing such films as ''Zebrahead''. He met the Coen Brothers while they were promoting their first film, ''Blood Simple''. He is the basis for one of their most popular characters, Jeffrey "The Dude" Lebowski from ''The Big Lebowski''. In 2011, Dowd was the subject of an 18-minute documentary-short directed by Jeff Feuerzeig and broadcast on the USA Network as part of its "Character" series. Radio host and comedian Phil Hendrie voices a character, Jeff Dowder, who is very similar to Jeff Dowd's inspired character "The Dude". ==Filmography== *''The Last Game'' (2002) (TV) (executive producer) *''Cement'' (1999) (co-executive producer) *''FernGully: The Last Rainforest'' (1992) (co-executive producer) *''Zebrahead'' (1992) (producer) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jeff Dowd」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
