Jack Beers, an extraordinary 94-year-old New Yorker, has broken the age barrier full force. Jack was raised in severe poverty in Manhattan, was known as New York City's Strongest boy, helped build Radio City Music Hall, invented something that shortened WW2, erected the Empire State Building spire, was a professional dog trainer, and we recognize him as a familiar character actor in over 200 films.
