But before he delved into film, he took a pause to focus on his education at The City University of New York, studying film and screenwriting. Here, his talent shone brightly as he not only starred in, but also co-produced a thesis film, "Familiar Differences", which took home all three Diamond Awards for Directing, Acting, and Best Short Film. With his Bachelor of Arts degree in hand and a slew of awards under his belt, Jaime headed to the City of Angels to hone his directing skills at the renowned American Film Institute. His impressive filmography includes standout performances in films like "The Message", "Warriors", "Jacob's Ladder", and notably, starring opposite music legend Michael Jackson and acclaimed actor Wesley Snipes in the Martin Scorsese film, "BAD". Not only is Jaime a talented actor and director, but he is also a dedicated student of his craft. He's studied method acting with Lee Strasberg at the Lee Strasberg Theater & Film Institute and HB Studios in New York. Jaime also ventured into television, playing a recurring role on "New York Undercover" and making several other guest appearances on network television. His body of work is both diverse and impressive. From the stage to the silver screen, to behind the camera, Jaime's contributions to the industry are truly remarkable.

Sep. 5, 2015. Patrick O'Connell discusses "The Inn at Little Washington: A Magnificent Obsession" at the 2015 Library of Congress National Book Festival in Washington, D.C. Speaker Biography: Patrick O'Connell is a self-taught chef who pioneered a refined, regional American cuisine in the Virginia countryside and created the Inn at Little Washington in 1978. Located in Washington, Virginia, approximately 60 miles west of the District of Columbia, the restaurant was one of the first establishments in Mobil Travel Guide's history to win two Five-Star Awards simultaneously for its restaurant and another for its accommodations. The inn has received two 5-Diamond Awards from AAA and is consistently rated No. 1 in all categories year after year by Zagat’s restaurant survey. O'Connell himself has received numerous awards, including the 2001 Outstanding Chef in America and 1993 Best Chef in the Mid-Atlantic region, both awarded by the James Beard Foundation. His most recent book, "The Inn at Little Washington: A Magnificent Obsession," tells the story of how the inn’s property was transformed from a rural garage into a sumptuous country house, which is now considered a masterpiece in American hotel and restaurant design.
