I'm the author of a series of Hollywood biographies, including an international best-seller on Leonardo DiCaprio and the first biography of the late Heath Ledger. Other book subjects have included Scream director Wes Craven and Hollywood stars Keanu Reeves, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Ewan McGregor, Nicolas Cage, Will Smith and River Phoenix. I've also written books on Silent Cinema, Laurel & Hardy and the films adapted from the novels of cult author Philip K. Dick (Counterfeit Worlds).
