Actor Geoffrey Arend made his initial entrée into show business in the early 2000s with voiceover work on the MTV animated series Daria; over time, he segued into features and came to focus predominantly, if not quite exclusively, on comedies with a high gag-quotient, such as Bubble Boy (2001), Porn 'n Chicken (2002), National Lampoon's Pledge This! (2006), and director David Zucker's Michael Moore send-up An American Carol (2008). Often, though not always (as in the Zucker film, where he played a Middle Easterner), Arend found himself cast in ethnic roles. His efforts in the Fred Schepisi-directed seriocomedy It Runs in the Family (2003) and the 2004 Zach Braff-headlined/directed coming of age saga Garden State (as a friend of Braff's) represented steps up in terms of depth and complexity. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
