Author Biography

Jaq Greenspon lives in Venice, California, with his girlfriend, Ronnie, and two cats. In between novels, he entertains himself with a variety of hobbies. Greenspon also runs sound at The Groundlings Theatre and devotes himself to several humanitarian causes. This is his first nonfiction book, and he wrote it in the hope that no one else out there would go through the confusion he suffered when he first got involved with the film industry.
