Notable work
Who Is Floyd Stearn? was originally developed with Mark Travis.[5] The New York Times called Who Is Floyd Stearn? “the best family confessional play they’ve seen”[6] and The New York Post named Raynor to a "2005 Galaxy of New Stars" list[7] after the Off-Broadway run produced by his childhood friend, Rick Waxman.
The JewishJournal.com wrote an article about Who is Floyd Stearn? which painted a picture of the emotional turmoil Raynor has faced while dealing with his father's absence.[8]
Howard Stern was so moved by the production, he wrote Raynor and talked about his own relationship with his father.[9]
