His novel "Chiaroscuro" is a lyrical exploration of the human condition through the eyes of an artist, a famed director who reached the pinnacle of his profession during the Golden Age of Hollywood. Beginning in the early years of American filmmaking in Fort Lee (NJ) and Tinseltown (CA) the story travels all through the big blockbusters' era of the '80s and '90s to today. A deconstruction of mortality, time, and youth in a world meant to exist, flourish, and wither in the chiaroscuro shades of celluloid.
