Miami Beach – thats where I grew up, in a middle-class Jewish family led by my maternal grandfather. Me, my great-grandmother – a Holocaust survivor, who was my roommate – my grandparents, my mom and her brother all shared a four-bedroom house. – Brett Ratner

My mom had me when she was 16, and I was an only child, which is probably why I received a lot of love and didnt miss that my father wasnt around. – Brett Ratner
