  <about><![CDATA[I'm an American living in Europe. I lived in Paris for two years where I studied language and art history, before going to Berkeley to study anthropology and later Simon Fraser University in Canada to study archaeology focusing on the prehistory of Polynesia. Since 1995, I’ve been living in Germany where I began to write essays and literary fiction. I’m the author of three books and a screenplay co-written with Polish film director Jarek Marszewski. 

I love movies and take great pleasure in chatting about them. Here's a link to an interview I had with author Susan Henderson:
