Revision as of 02:32, 24 November 2008
I am German and born in 1965. I presently live in Southwest of Germany, in a little parish, close to the French-German border to Alsace, France.
Although English is not my native language I understand it good enough to read and write in this language. Nevertheless, I work with comprehensive online dictionaries such as http://dict.leo.org/. However, my principle weakness always was (and still is) especially the English punctuation. Thus, in this respect, I would never object to be corrected, wherever appropriately necessary.
I am creator and admin of http://bobbydriscoll.net/, a Tribute website for deceased onetime child star Bobby Driscoll (1937-1968). I am also the major author of Driscoll’s Wikipedia article, as well as the articles on Billy Chapin and Sally Jane Bruce (both "The Night Of The Hunter", 1955), which both I extended from standard stubs up to the current (November 2008) versions.
Since the start of my researches for Bobby Driscoll in late 2006, I developed a specific interest in child actors/actresses’ and their difficult relations/understandings to their stardom and their post-screen (adult) lives in retrospect to their "once-being-someone".
I am not professionally involved in or associated with the film-, or theatre business nor in journalism in any way. Yet, I aquired myself good basic skills in screenplay and essay/article writing.
Articles, which I already contributed (imported from Wikipedia):
On the long term, partially based on my articles on Bobby Driscoll, Billy Chapin and Sally Jane Bruce and/or of which I have got good biographical material (printed biographies and/or comprehensive interviews), my further plans are articles on:
