Storyteller

I have always been a writer. Whether it was copy for broadcast or a play for myself. I have been writing for a very long time. I had somewhat of a public life before everything paranormal came along. I was a broadcaster and producer. I was an actor. I have spoken in front of thousands of people and I have broadcasted to millions around the world. I was a known entity even before meeting one paranormal person. I work by myself. If I do a show or a documentary it is because I wanted to take part in that particular project. I have been blessed with the ability to choose.

I have turned way more down than I ever agreed to. There are usually more good reasons to turn down a project than there are to agree to do one. My friend Carl who had quite an amazing career once told me to be picky and make sure I pick the right things for me. He told me not to be afraid to say no to the wrong ones. I am picky. I have not been over saturated because of being selective.

Out of everything I have done I have been proud of the work for the most part. I have been featured in the New York Post, Entertainment Weekly, Variety, The Times, The Sun, St Louis Magazine, St. Louis Post Dispatch and so many more publications around the world it’s hard to remember them all. I have played on televisions in living rooms around the world as well. Elliot and I were on the big Sony screen in Times Square one Halloween. We did a live show for Fox and they showed it on the screen. I have been on just about every major regular and cable network there is. I have worked with Warner Brothers and many more production companies. It would be impossible to name them all from memory.

I have been picky just like my friend Carl suggested I should be, but I have also been very lucky. I think some of my best work is still to come. Gorilla is going to bring in a whole new era for me. if I could give any of you advice it would be exactly what Carl gave to me. “Don’t be afraid to tell them no kid.” He was right. It’s smart advice. And never wait around for someone to do it for you. Go out and make it happen. And most important never do anything for the money. Do it for your love of whatever your art is. Money follows in time if you are doing what makes you happy.

I do what I do because I love it. It fulfills something inside me to create and communicate. It always has from a very young age. All of my teachers and professors would tell you the desire to communicate ideas has always been a driving force in who I am. I love what I do and I am grateful to have had the opportunities I have been given. In many different forms it all boils down to one thing for me- I am and always will be a storyteller. And that makes me happy. A storyteller. Yeah. That’s me.
