Jeff Cohen mini-bio: Jeffrey Bertan Cohen was a child actor whose claim to fame is appearing as Chunk in the 1985 classic Steven Spielberg production The Goonies.

After attending school at the University of California, Berkeley, earning a B.S. in Business Administration from the Haas School of Business in 1996. While at UC Berkeley, Jeff became President of the Associated Students. His campaign posters featured a picture of himself from his Goonies days and the simple slogan, "Chunk for president." He was also known for his energy at football games, performing the now famous "Truffle Shuffle" on the sidelines to raise applause from the crowd.
