Native New Yorker Josh Pais shines in Showtime’s “Ray Donovan” as creepy rich guy Stu Feldman. He is also starring in writer director Lynn Shelton’s 2013 Sundance Official Selection indie, “Touchy Feely.” Abby, a massage therapist (Rosemarie DeWitt), has a commitment-phobia attack that gushes out sideways.
