About Michael

I am a screenwriter, playwright and novelist.

I have written five screenplays – Targeted, Workaholic Romance, Christmas Past and Present, A Pitch for Love and Mascot Murders.

Targeted has been optioned by Nick Annunziata of Il Toro Productions.

I have written 13 plays that have been produced by the Manhattan Repertory Theatre in New York City: Stalked, Stuck, Workaholic Romance, The Pickup, He’s Your Daddy, Accidental Christmas Romance, Clerical Matters, Critical Mass, Sister Mary and the Pagan Babies, The Audible, The Confession, Dinner for Three and The Mascot Murders.

My play A Racial Divide had a staged reading at the Kingdom Theatre in New York City and Stuck had a Zoom production by the Tiger’s Heart Players, a global theatre company housed in the Bronx, New York City.

Stuck is scheduled for a six-performance run produced by the Vidalia Theatre Company in Atlanta in January 2025.

I have written and published two novels, Jack Daniels on the Rocks and A Pitch for Love.
