The repeated cliched that the book was better than the movie holds true for more reasons that the average reader will know. Stephen Jay Schwartz has sat on both sides ot hat dsk first as the Director of Development for film director Wolfgang Peterson, then as a screenwriter and author pitching his work to the film and television industry. HWat authors often learn and discover is that their audience is younger and less worldly than themselve.s join me when we discuss Hollywood vs the author a collection of Non-fiction anecdotes written by authors who have had the pleasure firsthand- some who were successful in straddling the two world and others who will talk about their experiences.
