Scott Brooks grew up reading spy novels and watching old movies. Getting his BFA degree in theater led to broadcasting and a stint as a top 40 DJ in Danbury, Connecticut. He wrote screenplays and founded Badlands Theatre company, which produced several of his original stage plays as well as works by other playwrights. Badland’s production of his original play, ScreenPlay, won Best Play and Best Production at Manhattan’s Midtown International Theatre festival and moved to an Off-Broadway run the following year. He also collaborated with novelist Kevin Baker on the adaptation of his best selling novel Dreamland. His original comedy web series is Reality Sets In, about being a newly single New Yorker at 40. |
