About Norman

I’ve spent a lifetime of watching and closely studying films and the graphic fine arts. I have stage training in direction, lighting, and acting and have a thorough understanding of all aspects of the film business from conception, pre-production, location shooting and post editing, dubbing, and distribution. I am now writing and developing projects.

Credits and bio:

Studied filmmaking under George Manupelli at the University of Michigan. Made short art films for the Ann Arbor Film Festival, 1972. Credits: Ann Arbor Summer ’70, Challenge of Change, and The Tortoise and the Egg.

35mm carbon arc projectionist and business manager for the Princess Theater in Crested Butte, Colorado, 1974 to 1980; chief projectionist for the Telluride Film Festival, 1977-80, under Bill Pence.

Experimental video with Dana Atchley, video artist and Ace of Space Showman, 1974-80.

After a career in theoretical physics and internet communications, I now split my home between Woodinville, Washington and Molokai, Hawaii. In my off hours, I enjoy volcano skiing, raising chickens, deep-sea fishing, and restoring cars.

I have also published two novels, "Sometimes...I Don't Remember Much of the '70s," (2017) and "Sword of a Thousand Suns" (2021).
