Chad A. Verdi is an American film producer from East Greenwich, Rhode Island.[1][2]
Early life
[edit]Verdi's father owned a meat-packing company and he worked in the day-to-day operations of the family business. He started numerous side businesses, including: toy manufacturers, restaurants, an advertising franchise, a poultry company, a coffee company, and acquired real estate. [3]
By the time he was 25 years old he was a millionaire. He has said his real estate investments support his filmmaking, today.[3]
Career
[edit]In 2011, Verdi produced his first film, Inkubus starring Robert Englund, which won Best New England Film at the Rhode Island International Horror Film Festival.[4][5][6] He went on to produce Loosies, with Peter Facinelli and Jamie Alexander that same year.[7] The film secured a major distribution deal with IFC.[8]
Verdi has executive produced more than thirty-one films, including Silence, The 50 Year Argument, and The Irishman directed by Martin Scorsese.[9][10]
Other notable works include Bleed for This starring Miles Teller and Katey Sagal, Welles Crowther, and Wander starring Tommy Lee Jones and Aaron Eckhart.[11][12]
Verdi Productions does not operate on a project-to-project basis, but functions like a west coast film studio with established offices, full time employees and a continuous stream of product. Verdi and his investment partners have invested over $100 million dollars into twenty feature films. His productions use mostly Rhode Island crews.[8][9]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
