BJ Davis is a producer and director who has worked with Academy Award-winning feature film directors Clint Eastwood and Oliver Stone. He has also worked in close collaboration with four-time Emmy Award winner Arthur Allan Seidelman. BJ has been an executive producer, producer, director and screenwriter, continually coming in on or under budget with all of his film and television productions. Bondable and bankable, he brings over 25 years of experience as a member of the Directors Guild of America, Producers Guild of America, Screen Actors Guild of America and other entertainment-industry unions.

BJ began his film-industry career as a stuntman, stunt coordinator and second unit director. Growing up, he excelled in sports, rodeo and motocross racing, winning the title of "Best All-Round Cowboy". He was first attracted to Hollywood as a small child, winning an audition for the popular western series "Bat Masterson", starring Gene Barry. Davis ran away from home at the age of 16 and enlisted in the Marine Corps during the Vietnam war, and served two years before coming to Hollywood to fulfill his dream of working in the movies. BJ also earned degrees in Arts, Communications and Theology. He studied at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute. BJ eventually became a stuntman and went on to double such Academy Award winners as Tom Hanks, Jack Nicholson, Tommy Lee Jones, Michael Caine and Art Carney. As a means of making himself more known, BJ decided to break two world stunt records and set his own: a high fall from a helicopter into the ocean from 180 feet and an aerial neck suspension beneath a helicopter at 70 mph, at 1,000 feet for a period of 20 minutes of flight. These two world records still stand, and as a testament to their danger, another stuntman was unfortunately killed trying to beat them. For his spectacular stunts and unbeatable world records, BJ was accepted into the Hollywood Stuntmen's Hall of Fame (other members include movie superstar Kirk Douglas and an American icon John Wayne).

BJ Davis has worked as a stuntman in over 180 films and television shows and as a second unit director/stunt coordinator in over 250 films and television series. He organized a fraternal group of stunt players, Stunts Spectacular, that eventually became a stunt equipment and supply organization. BJ Davis and Stunts Spectacular created the very first reality-based and commercially successful video How to Become a Hollywood Stuntman, hosted by Charlie Sheen, which BJ wrote, produced and directed. Davis took an active position in the affairs of the Screen Actors Guild when he served as secretary to Charlton Heston and Robert Conrad. He rallied the stunt world and successfully demanded the Screen Actors Guild provide contractual representation for stunt coordinators. He has directed film, television, rock videos and commercials and worked with such directors as John McTiernan and Oliver Stone. BJ directed Brandon Lee in his first feature film, which catapulted the son of martial arts great Bruce Lee into the spotlight. A martial artist himself, BJ has appeared in action films with such stars as Jean-Claude Van DammeDolph Lundgren and Chuck Norris. BJ worked as a stunt coordinator and made numerous appearances in Star Trek films, including Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.

BJ has partnered with noted producer John D. Schofield, whose credits include such Academy Award-winning box-office hits as Jerry Maguire, As Good as It Gets, Enemy at the Gates and Ali. The duo created Beverly Hills Film Studios and produced Davis' first comedy, "Forget About It" , starring Burt Reynolds, Raquel Welch, Charles Durning, Robert Loggia and Richard Grieco. In 2005 Davis produced feature film Dirty Love, starring Jenny McCarthy and Carmen Electra, which was screened at the Sundance Film Festival. Davis fulfilled his longtime dream of saluting America's heroes, Medal of Honor recipients by creating, in association with the Medal of Honor Society, the television series "Medal of Honor", hosted by Burt Reynolds. BJ is currently developing several feature films, documentaries and TV series, as well as completing an autobiography entitled "Confessions Of A Hollywood Stuntman". Davis' motto still echoes in all media markets of the entertainment world: "We do the difficult immediately, the impossible by appointment".
