Michael Graf, Writer/Director: I got my first job in Hollywood because of an earthquake. I got my second job in Hollywood because of a klutz move at a salad bar. I’m now a member of the DGA, a produced screenwriter, just made the short list for the Academy’s Nicholl Fellowship, won top screenwriting honors in Paris, directed a Super Bowl commercial, won an Emmy, was named a “Top 25 Screenwriter” by the ISA and have two Top 1% scripts on Coverfly's Red List. I’m still prone to occasional klutz moves, but am grateful for every opportunity to tell a good story.
