Daniel F. Scherl is a lot of things. Successful basketball player is not one of them.
"I think it's really important to know your strengths as well as your weaknesses. I'm a good racquetball player and I love rock climbing, but basketball... forget it. It's like watching a whale try to belly dance... a beached whale."
Mr. Scherl, a self-described "Ohioan forced to live in L.A. for work," is the creator of the "Four Months" story and the driving force behind the film, as well as President and C.E.O. of Group 8 Productions, the company behind the movie.
When not directing, Mr. Scherl is a successful writer, producer, musician, engineer, editor, designer and nationally published author, to name a few. He also loves dogs and Apple computers.
