John began his career in film as an actor in Los Angeles. Working under the name John Durbin, he appeared in a combination of over one hundred films, television movies, series television and plays. Returning to the Midwest in the 1990’s, John met filmmaker Alexander Payne. The two have collaborated on five films, SIDEWAYS, ABOUT SCHMIDT, ELECTION, CITIZEN RUTH, and THE DESCENDANTS. He is currently casting Mr. Payne's newest feature project entitled, NEBRASKA. As his interest in acting diminished, his work in casting grew. John has had the great good fortune to cast films for other established directors such as; Korean director Joon-Ho Bong (THE HOST), French writer/director Jennifer Devoldere (SHOE AT YOUR FOOT), producer/director Tony Krantz (OTIS) and Daniel Myrick co-director of THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT.
