About
Thomas J Leveque
I realized early that I wanted to be a writer. My focus was screenplays and although I've never had anything produced I have had screenplays optioned and commissioned. While waiting for my big break I worked as a story editor for a a film distribution company rising to rising Director of Creative Affairs and Vice President of Production and Acquisitions. During this time I worked closely with writers and directors on shaping stories, dialogue and action. During a tumultuous time in the movie industry, having a young family, I moved into education, first as a teacher than as a principal. I received my Ed.D. from UCLA focusing on Higher Education as a Professor and Dean of the School of Education for a small Liberal Arts College. This my first novel and have plans for others in this series.
