Biography

 

After British television success as one of the original writers for "The Max Headroom Show", and a spell writing for HandMade Films, Tim pursued a seven-year career in Hollywood, writing Feature Screenplays for nearly all the major studios, together with Network and Cable television.  As well as working on his original material, he has also re-written scripts for stars such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Will Smith, Bette Midler and Bill Murray. Tim returned to live in England a few years ago, where he continues to write for both sides of the Atlantic, generally working in Comedy, although his material is taking on an increasingly dark tone.  He blames his mother.
