As of Oct. 2010, he is an entertainment lawyer in Beverly Hills, CA.
Got the chicken pox after he got the role of Chunk in The Goonies (1985). He
showed up to the set anyway, afraid that they would have replaced him
otherwise. To generate tears during his "confession" scene with the
Fratellis, he thought of his mother dying.
Cohen has served as a legal representative to his co-star from The Goonies, Ke Huy Quan. He considers Cohen his Goonies brother.
Mother and older sister appeared on the 26 June 2004 episode of TLC's Clean Sweep (2003) organizing their house of 32 years. Found in the mess (and shown
on air) were head shots of Jeff around the time of The Goonies (1985).
He was the President of the Associated Students of UC Berkeley and used
to do the Truffle Shuffle on the sidelines during football games.
It was fun being an actor, but by the time college rolled around, I was ready to try some new things. By the time I graduated, I realized I enjoyed having a normal life and I never went back.
Anybody who says they intentionally give up acting is lying.
