Back to Basics with Matthew Jeffers

In today’s episode Andy and Jonas sat down with Matthew Jeffers. Matthew is an actor based in New York City where he’s worked on numerous off-Broadway productions and currently works on NBC’s hit show New Amsterdam where he plays the role of Dr. Mark Walsh, and you can also see him playing the role of Russell on Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

Soon, you’ll be able to see Matthew star in a feature film along with actress Sarah Hays—but the project is so new he wasn’t at liberty to tell us even the name of the film.

During the discussion, Matthew shared his challenges with a rare form of skeletal dysplasia with joint laxity, requiring him to undergo numerous orthopedic surgeries as a child, and stunting his height to only 4 feet, 4 inches tall. Along the way, Matthew shares insight into the lessons he learned about the importance of a singular focus on your mission, and the power of belief in your self and the value you offer the world.
