Biography

Bruce Hidemi Sakow is an award-winning veteran screenwriter who attended the NYU Film School and the American Film Institute in Los Angeles. He taught screenwriting at the School of Visual Arts in New York City for nine years. Since 1975 Sakow has written 20 original screenplays - 15 of which have been optioned or sold and four produced (see attached resume). In 1982 his fourth original screenplay, "Quarantine" (aka "Amoeba"), was sold to director Joseph Zito (director of "Missing In Action," "Invasion USA" and "Red Scorpion"). Their professional association continued when Zito hired him to write "Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter." This $1.7 million sequel, fourth in the phenomenally successful "Friday the 13th" series, was released by Paramount Pictures in 1983 and has earned over $50 million in worldwide theatrical release. In 1990 he began collaborating with writer Larry Hama, Marvel Comics writer of "G.I. Joe," and many other titles. Together they have written four screenplays including "the video" that Bruce directed and produced and "Cornered," optioned by producer Gabrielle Kelly and director Tamara Friedman. Recently the pair collaborated on "Dead Grrl" that was optioned by producer Alexandra Taylor and director Bill Butler. In 2002 Bruce began collaborating with veteran parapsychologist Peter Jordan. Together they have written two screenplays: "Out of Body" and "Inferno".
