Bio

My latest film is called "They Murdered the Ice Cream Man" and explores the role of poetry in the war torn days of the Troubles, in Northern Ireland. We have completed primary photography in Belfast and are now waging the eternal battle to raise the funds – this time for post-production.

In 1991 I wrote Leather Soul: Working for a Life in a Factory Town, narrated by the late, great, Studds Terkel.

Since then I have written and/or produced "Last Call:Dreams, Main Street, and the Search for Community"; "Witch City"; "Unfinished Dreams, "Wood Sails Dreams," and "The Last Bay Scallop?"

Along the way I worked at the usual industrial videos jobs and short films for museums.
