Paul Jeffrey Ross [1] (born 1958 or 1959 (age 65–66)) [2] known by the pseudonym Ross Jeffries, [3] is an American author and pick-up artist.
Neil Strauss, in his 2005 book The Game, describes Jeffries as the "godfather" of the modern pick-up artist community. [3]
Career
In 1988, Jeffries started to study seduction. [4] [5] He taught workshops and promoted a collection of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP)-based techniques called "speed seduction". [4] His teachings claim to show men how to create the desired emotional state in a woman by leading her imagination for the purpose of seduction, rather than to focus on a specific behavior or action of hers, as the desired outcome. [6]
In 1992, he was on a segment of NBC's Faith Daniels Show, appearing with men's rights activist Mel Feit and feminist and ethicist Bruce Weinstein. [7] Jeffries has also been featured on The Dr. Phil Show, The Montel Williams Show, The Jane Whitney Show and The Daily Show, and is a self-described "speed seduction expert". [2] [5] [8] In 2000, Jeffries was featured on Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends. [9] [10] [11]
In 2000, Jeffries sued John White (also known as Don Steele) alleging invasion of privacy, business interference, slander and libel. [2]
In his book The Game, published in 2005, author Neil Strauss describes his experience shadowing Jeffries during Strauss' investigation of the seduction community. [3] He writes that Jeffries acted as the mentor to Mystery and himself. [4] Jeffries is Jewish. [3] [12]
Tom Cruise's character in the film Magnolia was inspired by Jeffries according to the film's writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson. [13] [14]
