SPEC SCRIPTS / WRITING SAMPLES (available upon request):
PILOTS:
J. Kyle, M.D. A one-hour drama. Set in New York City, this is a post-modern, American re-imagining of Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde.
Both Sides Now… An hour dramedy — An unconventional love story told in concurrent time from two points of view. The 1st half-hour is His; the 2nd half-hour is Hers. In Her Story, he’s a secondary character; in His Story, she is. And what he thinks happened one way, she remembers another. The truth, of course, lies somewhere in between.
MINISERIES:
The War for Peace in America: 1968 (A 4-hour miniseries written with David Abramowitz). A watershed year, 1968 began with the Tet Offensive, moved through the assassinations of King and Kennedy, saw the fall of LBJ, the resurrection of Richard Nixon, a third party formed by George Wallace, riots at Chicago’s Democratic Convention, and on Christmas Eve we saw the darkside of the moon for the first time. This is the story of three families whose lives intersect in ways apparent to us but not always clear to them. It is the story of Vietnam Generation and the war that changed us all.
