I'm a writer of TV one-hour scripts, screenplays, novels, short stories, articles, and poetry. I'm most proud of a story (episode outline) I sold to the hour-long TV series "Hercules, The Legendary Journeys" and an article in a printed anthology book called Thrilling Wonder Stories, Vol 2 that I was commissioned to write. Other articles can be googled. I've also worked as a script coordinator on various one-hour TV shows, which are listed on my IMDB page and am a researcher for the LA Public Library. If that's not enough for one lifetime, I am also an actor with a film, radio play, and Shakespeare reading already under my belt. Before coming to the mecca of the film industry, I was a magazine editor and a biochemist. You can find me in Index Medicus for many articles we wrote on projects I was involved in. I have a lifelong interest in all things Native American, and my home is decorated mostly in Native American arts and crafts, which I share with three cats.
