Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Andrew Stevens, Actor, Producer, Director & Author.
Andrew Stevens is a highly respected actor, writer, songwriter, producer, director, author, educator and film company executive. The fact that he has show business in his blood comes as no surprise, given that he’s the son of screen legend Stella Stevens.

On the big screen, you’ve seen him in “The Boys in Company C”, which earned him a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Male Newcomer, and he also received the Star of Tomorrow award from the National Association of Theatre Owners.

He’s also written many screenplays and composed numerous songs for movies and TV shows. He’s directed over a dozen feature films, including world premieres on HBO and SHOWTIME, as well as multiple episodes of popular TV series.
But beyond all of that, our guest is one of the most prolific and successful producers in Hollywood. He has co-founded and run numerous film production companies, and is currently President and CEO of Andrew Stevens Entertainment and Stevens Entertainment Group. He’s produced hundreds of enormously successful feature films including “The Whole Nine Yards”, “Angel Eyes”, “The Pledge”, “City by the Sea”, “The Big Kahuna”, “Green Dragon”, “Get Carter”, “The Marksman”, “Black Dawn”, and dozens more.
As an educator, he created a fully accredited Associate of Applied Arts college degree program in Motion Picture Production, which formed the basis of an online certificate program called “Foolproof Film School”, based on his best-selling 2014 book entitled, “Foolproof Filmmaking: Make a Movie That Makes a Profit”. His other books are “Producing for Profit: A Practical Guide to Making Independent and Studio Films”, and “Screenwriting for Profit: Writing for the Global Marketplace.”

Harvey Brownstone is a retired judge of the Ontario Court of Justice and was the first openly gay judge in Canada. He is also the bestselling author of “Tug of War: A Judge’s Verdict on Separation, Custody Battles and the Bitter Realities of Family Court” and hosted “Family Matters with Justice Harvey Brownstone,” a television talk show on matters involving the family justice system.
After a distinguished legal career, Harvey was appointed a judge at the age of 38 in 1995. He has presided in family and criminal courts. He has been a trailblazer in several ways. He was the first openly gay judge in Canada. He was the first sitting judge in the world to write a national best seller and to host a TV talk show.
Harvey has been a role model and icon in the LGBTQ community. When same-sex marriage was legalized in Canada in 2003, he was the only judge to make himself publicly available to officiate at weddings for lesbian and gay couples travelling to Toronto from all over the world to get married. In 2007, he officiated at the wedding of Edith Windsor and Thea Spyer, the American couple whose marriage triggered the 2013 United States Supreme Court decision overturning the definition of “spouse” in the federal Defense of Marriage Act.

In February 2021, Harvey launched his online talk show “Harvey Brownstone Interviews” on his own YouTube channel. He saw this as an interesting hobby. Within several months, the show attracted hundreds of thousands – and then eventually, millions – of viewers. Because of the overwhelming success of the show, Harvey decided to retire from the judiciary on December 31, 2021 after having presided as a full-time judge for 26 1/2 years. Free from the constraints imposed upon judges regarding the expression of opinions and the endorsement of private enterprise, Harvey now happily devotes his full-time attention to hosting “Harvey Brownstone Interviews” as a regular member of the public – albeit one with a rather illustrious and unique career history.
