Stephen's involvement with Randy Spelling and manager David Weintraub, culminated in a few episodes of "SONS OF HOLLYWOOD", which aired on the A&E Network in April, 2007. Stephen is looking forward to working with John Malchovitch in a film to be named later this year. Stephen's s screenplay "Queen Of Screams" which was picked up by Ryan Productions, is in the can awaiting release. Having recently arrived home after directing two regional TV commercial ad spots in New York, and finishing up filming in the UK and Canada for the History Channel, Stephen is hard at work finishing up the soundtrack to "Cosmic Radio" with Black Eyed Pea's member and good friend Taboo. Also in the works are three brand new screenplays which will be pitched as a package deal at scheduled meetings in Feb. 2008, with two major production companies, including the crime drama "Monkey Grip" (Stephen directed a short film version of the feature screenplay last year), "Bronwyn's Gift", a period feature set in Wales in the 15th century, and the 1920's mystery, "Bleeding Kansas". His Lewis and Clark screenplay, "Shadows Of Lesser Men" has been optioned twice, but is now all his again. Stephen is in talks with a few producers at the moment, and he hopes to start production on that film in 2009. He has just finished writing and directing a series of ad spots and short subjects for Time/Warner's "Travel Channel" and the new "Journey Channel". And to top it all off, he's even managed to find time to play guitar with his brother Tucker and their band, CCH. Stephen's first feature film was the 2003 epic western/drama "Turquoise".
