Biography
Jeff Ragsdale built a writing and filmmaking career from a 2011 social experiment gone viral. Posted a flyer in New York City asking strangers to call him, describing himself as "Jeff, one lonely guy"—the photo spread online and he received thousands of calls. That experience became the scaffolding for his 2012 memoir Jeff, One Lonely Guy, which Dave Eggers selected for The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2012 and GQ named a 2012 "Book of the Year". The book's success indirectly led to a 2013 pilot episode for the reality television show Being Noticed and a starring role in the 2014 documentary Hotline. Beyond writing, Ragsdale worked as a documentary filmmaker, actor, and stand-up comedian. He was a U.S. citizen.
