| Introduction | Father of three, husband of the wonderful Michele Hunter. Deeply committed to filmmaking as an art form; please ignore the irony that I work in Hollywood. Rock climber of 27 years experience, author, amature photographer. Politically, socialism is my starting point because it is the only political discourse that is willing to be critically engaged with democratic reform, and because the project for radical democracy holds great promise for the potential of an ethical state. |
