I am in the process of rewriting "Da Beer Can Hat" and John has given me wonderful notes and great insight and tools to tell my story well. Thanks John, for being a great teacher and friend.

John M. Soriano A graduate of USC's famed film school, John Soriano has worked in Hollywood for over twenty years writing, developing and producing motion picture and television projects. Shifting to Paramount as a studio executive, he worked on a variety of films from pitch through production, from smaller projects like Searching for Bobby Fisher to big budget projects like Tom Clancy's Patriot Games and John Grisham's The Firm. Moving to Universal to run director Rob Cohen's company, John helped develop movies like Dragonheart, Daylight and Face/Off before becoming a writer himself, setting up projects at Warner Bros, Fox, and in TV at Universal/Tribune. John recently departed a long stint at Paramount to join the 20th Century Fox story department, which affords him more flexibility and time to consult and write his own projects.
