About Steven

I was a crab fisherman on the Bering Sea for several years. Then a writer/producer (starting as a video camera operator/editor) in Seattle for 7 years. Following that I worked on projects in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America in business. I moved to L.A. to pursue screenwriting and have had one screenplay optioned and a book published so far.
