INT. BIOGRAPHY - DAY
I've been a member of the Writer's Guild since 1976. During this
time I've written for MGM, Warner Bros, 20th Century Fox, Paramount
and Universal. I've had three screenplays produced, "Brainstorm",
"Distant Thunder" and "Eyes of an Angel"...and upcoming, "Icarus".
Of all the scripts I've written, only two scripts haven't received
money -- as of yet.
I received an MFA degree from the University of Southern California
school of Cinema. I was a script reader for Paramount and 20th Century
for three years after graduation. I read over 1000 scripts and during
that time developed my own style and a sense for what sells and
doesn't sell.
Currently I am a member of the Writer's Guild Credit Arbitration
Board and continue working in Hollywood. My life's commitment has
been to writing screenplays.
