About Matthew

When I lived in San Francisco, I resided on Eddy Street in an apartment once occupied by Dashiell Hammett ("The Maltese Falcon"); and like Hammett I worked for Pinkerton. Was this coincidence, or the universe telling me I am destined to become a writer? During the past few years, I wrote a collection of short screenplays that won awards. Now I'm turning those award winning stories into feature length screenplays.

Unique traits: Ambidextrous. Can write backwards and upside down.
