Adam Roffman is a property master and on-set dresser for feature films working primarily on the East Coast.
Adam started his career working as an intern on the Emmy-winning program Bill Nye the Science Guy in 1996. Since that time Adam has worked with such directors as Robert Altman, Martin Scorsese, James Toback, Bobby and Peter Farrelly, Peter Hedges, Ben Affleck, Edward Burns, Martin Campbell, and numerous others.

In 2001, Roffman wrote, co-directed, and starred in the short film The Terror of the Invisible Man. This one minute film was written in five minutes, shot within two hours and edited in one hour, at a budget of under $100. The film was made solely as a joke to show friends, but eventually ended up playing at 28 film festivals and receiving television distribution on the Independent Film Channel and internet distribution on Atom Films.
In 2003, Roffman was one of the founding staff members of the Independent Film Festival of Boston and became the festival's first and only Program Director. The festival quickly became the première film festival in the New England area. In its first year, the festival had over 10,000 people in attendance. By 2008, the attendance number had grown to over 23,000 people.
In 2007, Roffman began to branch out into being a film producer. Roffman is the producer of director Alex Karpovsky's second film, Woodpecker and third film Trust Us, This Is All Made Up as well as Garth Donovan's Phillip the Fossil. All three films had their World Premiere at the SXSW Film Festival.
