STEPHEN CAMELIOAfter a successful career as a freelance writer and editor at In Style magazine in New York City, Steve volunteered to be snowed-in in Yellowstone National Park for a winter (think The Shining with more wolves, less ghosts). The following year he wrote the Montana-set, fly fishing, veterans, PTSD drama MENDING THE LINE, which was awarded a Big Sky Film Grant from the state of Montana. Starring Golden Globe-winner Brian Cox, Sinqua Walls, Emmy-winner Patricia Heaton, Academy Award-recipient Wes Studi, and Perry Mattfeld, it world premiered at the 2022 Woodstock Film Festival. Currently, Steve is adapting a treatment into a feature for director/producer Nick Stagliano and adapting a novel into a feature for producer Keith Arnold (Netflix's Find Me Falling). With strong ties to the military and veteran community, Steve has adapted two books about the Vietnam war into a feature and TV pilot, respectively, and has worked closely with the Marine Corps on a project about a legendary Marine who served during the Korean War. Steve’s original pilot THE HIGH-LINE, about drug smuggling along the Montana/Canada border, was featured in Variety as an ATX Festival/The Black List Writers Program Selection. He also co-wrote READ OR BLEED, a buddy-comedy based both on his time as the only guy editor at In Style and as a founding member of The Scorpions, the world’s manliest book club that was featured in Playboy, The New Yorker and Gawker. A graduate of Villanova University, Steve holds master’s degrees in English education from New York University and Irish literature from Queens University in Belfast, Northern Ireland. After years of living in Yellowstone National Park, he now lives with his wife and two daughters in Bozeman, Montana, where he fishes, hikes, and writes about the Big Sky life.
