Mark Millhone is an award-winning writer, filmmaker, columnist and teacher. After graduating from Columbia University with an MFA in Film Direction and winning the Academy Award for Best Student Film, Mark spent more than five years wandering the vast desert of Hollywood Development Hell before resurfacing as a screenwriting professor at NYU Film School and the Dysfunctional-Male-in-Residence at Men's Health Magazine. His humorous columns for that magazine begat his memoir-in-progress The Blue Beckham Bomber due frightfully soon to his editor at Rodale Books/Modern Times Press. Mark lives in New York City with his beautiful wife, lovely children and two rather strange-looking dogs.
