The Founder, DAVE BEEMAN

 Dave Beeman founded Prank Monkey Productions in 2001 here in Hermosa Beach.
Dave Beeman switched gears in early 2003, and moved to Oroville, Washington where he poached fish and played "Chicken" with his car. He's happily married to Sue Phan, and leaves a legacy of socal grace behind! He has recently moved to Chicago, Illinois. Dave and his wife Sue, are picture on the right.
Dave's settled down, and has proudly recounted his missadventures as the kid from California-turned-redneck, in his series... The Further Adventures of Grocery Man! For all the happenings with our beloved founder and friend, and to check out all the crazy stories, be sure to contact Dave directly! |

Program Leader & Organizer

Chris (me) took the torch that Dave passed in February of 2003.
Born and raised here in Southern California, I joined Prank Monkey as a member in fall of 2001. Starting off in a Co-Ed Random Draw Flag Football Tournament that I had heard of from a random email passed along by another friend, I quickly fell in love with sports on the beach and got involved with the football leagues run by Dave.
Today, I not only manage the business that is Prank Monkey, but also passionately try to keep the spirit of the events and even the emails that are sent out, to be that of which Dave started. That spirit has many meanings to everyone, but I believe that Prank Monkey is about bringing adults together in a fun, social, competitive and SAFE atmosphere.
I also run another business, called New Internet Media (NIM) where we specialize in IT Project Management. NIM consults, becomes or manages another company's IT Team. For more information, visit www.nim.net!
I also work with several non-profit organizations as a member of the Board of Directors for both the Impacting Hearts Foundation (www.impactinghearts.org) and the Southern California Foundation for Children (SCFC - www.socalfc.org). I teach on weekends, sharing the Good News and work with kids as a volunteer on a regular basis.
The other aspects of my life can be comprised of my active relationship in Church as a Christian where I havs been teaching 4th/5th Grade Sunday School since June, 2000. Together, with my "adopted little bro", Austin - I'm currently developing a site that is coming soon where we'll display our testimonies, fun personal news, write-ups from the ongoing series, "Adventures In Sunday School" and in particular my upcoming novel, "Saving Trinity" (www.savingtrinity.com) for our younger generations.
