Fred Gooltz
Fred Gooltz studied film, theatre, and writing in New York and London. Some short fiction, plays, and nonfiction have been published in the US and UK, with stageplays and screenplays produced in New York, including an indie feature and a short film that premiered at the Beverly Hills Film Festival. In the Howard Dean wave, he turned toward transmedia storytelling and political strategy work in politics, non profits, and technology, mostly through Living Liberally and Advomatic. His current writing for film and TV incorporates his obsession with politics and his expertise in transmedia content development.
