About The Author
I was born in Los Angeles under the Hollywood sign. So I learned early on what’s behind the magic of movie-making. In 2012, I left a career in journalism to write novels that dramatize key incidents in film history.
As a novelist two things in particular interest me about the early “picture makers.” The first is their innocence. The second is their corruption.
It’s the oldest story there is. And still the best.
A Note on the Ben-Hur Saga
“Cast Aside” is my newest novel about movie history. But it is actually the first installment in the whole amazing “Ben-Hur” saga.
