SCANDAL AND ART : BIOGRAPHICAL INFO AND CURRENT WORKS

Since I just started this blog I am only now getting the hang of it. There is a pretty good bio and information on my past endeavors on Wikipedia, but it is not up to date. Last year I shot a film called STEIN GERTRUDE STEIN, a "docufiction" on the life of this cultural icon. I think it is full of surprises and reminds me stylistically of my film BROTHER CAN YOU SPARE A DIME. I am just completing that film now. More on this new film soon.

Last year I also wrote some articles for the Sydney Morning Herald that garnered world wide attention, particularly an article about scandalous declassified FBI files I located linking Robert F. Kennedy to the death of Marilyn Monroe. I ended up on Fox News explaining the files. My favorite article, however, was about the true story behind the making of Citizen Kane, a tale of exquisite revenge. I am preparing films on Salvador Dali, Billy The Alien Kid (for kids!) and some that have to remain confidential for the time being.

I have an exhibition of paintings and other works at a great gallery in London in September: England & Co. in Westbourne Grove. Be there or be square.
