Second acts: Jeff Cohen on making the transition from child actor from The Goonies to entertainment lawyer

Some people I tend to see at every major comedy festival. Jeff B. Cohen is one of those people. I met him several years ago in Aspen. He's a nice guy. For an entertainment lawyer, that is! We have fun conversations about comedy and I have many friends who are clients of his.

Someone else pointed out to me once that Cohen played "Chunk" in the 1985 movie The Goonies. Are you surprised? Are you surprised because you thought that I played "Chunk" in The Goonies?

Regardless, Yahoo! caught up with Cohen to talk to him (as well as director Richard Donner) about how he made the transition from child actor to entertainment lawyer. Roll the clip!
