A globe-trotter and perpetual dreamer, I left the US at age 20 to see the world. Planned a one-year adventure, but ended up living my 20s and 30s in Europe and the Middle East. After surviving a war in Cyprus in 1974 and a monsoon in the Indian Ocean, I reflected on the extraordinary roller coaster rides of my life. After publication of my memoirs, readers commented that they would make great movies. So I began script writing classes to learn more about the film industry. To date, I have written two unsolicited scripts which I hope to one day see produced.
