Crawford received his Bachelor of Arts degree from Florida Atlantic University and served at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts teaching directing for their School of Filmmaking.[2]

He portrayed the title character in the film Jake Speed, which he also co-wrote and co-produced. Variety Movie Guide said his portrayal was "well played," and that he delivered his lines "as an old-fashioned paperback hero would – in clichés."[3] He directed and starred in Crime Lords, which was called "predictable" by DVD & video guide 2005[4] while the Variety TV Review called it unpretentious and entertaining.[5]

He co-wrote and co-produced the film Valley Girl with Andrew Lane.[6] He fought against the studio to ensure that Martha Coolidge was maintained as the director.[7]
