Author Biography

After signing up for three years in the U.S. Army, his first civilian job was that of junior copywriter at a famous advertising agency where a highly paid Creative Director declared John Klawitter to be 'the most undirect-ible person he ever met.' A few months later John won an EMMY award for a documentary he created with world-famous Artist Reporter Franklin McMahon, Sr. In the decades since, John Klawitter has created successful films and videos for major agencies and for most of the Hollywood studios, including Disney, Warner Bros, Universal, Paramount, and Hanna-Barbera, working with such legends as Ray Bradbury, Rod Serling, Orson Wells, Leslie Nielson, Arthur Pierson, Art Babbett, Bill Hanna, Joe Barbera, Bugs Bunny and Goofy. (How many directors can say they actually directed Goofy?) Relying on his tinseltown experiences, John Klawitter has written eight novels and six non-fiction books. In 2009 he was a double winner: his novel Hollywood Havoc won an Epic Author's award for Best Action Thriller, and his non-fiction book Tinsel Wilderness won Best Non-Fiction Book.
