About Maurice

I got bitten by the acting bug late. I saw an episode of The Equalizer being shot on the courthouse steps in lower Manhattan & asked if those people were getting paid for this. The P.A. said yes. Years later, I learned more about the craft to evolve as a screenwriter. Hoping to meet people here with similar visions as artist.

This year I was blessed to be cast as a choir member in season 3 of Netflix Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Tituss Burgess was hilarious!

I was glad to attend this recently. I've been busy submitting my short The Jenna Bender Show for festival consideration & it was worth a shot.

Thanks to all 900 + people who have viewed my animated short RACE FOR COFFEE on You Tube. It's currently submitted to a number of short film festivals for consideration.
