Biography
Norman "Greg" McGuire is a Film Director, Screen Writer, and Producer. He won at Bare Bones International Film Festival and The American Film Awards in 2015 for his film "From Eva with Love". He has continued his Directorial career with his latest work, feature film "The Lucky Man" set to be released in the Fall of 2016. Inspired by the great Sergio Leone and John Ford, McGuire loves using the desert landscape of New Mexico, Arizona, Texas, and Death Valley as inspiration and a pallet for his films. "The Lucky Man" was filmed along Eastern New Mexico's Route 66 and beautiful desert mesas. Friends & family call him by his middle name "Greg". He uses his full name, Norman, in all his films in honor of his family name. Film has become McGuire's second career. For 25 years, he worked as an Information Technology Consultant and Executive in Technology. "I would like to have a personal collection of 15-20 'exclusively me' films over my career as a Writer / Director. I would like to do this over the next 25 years or as long as I remain relevant. I would hope that a person could watch one of my films, without knowing it was mine, but be able to know its mine by just watching the first 5 minutes into it. Not being afraid to push the envelope of controversy is a hallmark I try to stay true to. I think by personally judging a screenwriter, director, or any person in performing arts is wrong. One must keep in mind that the artist is portraying a situation or story that could be fictional or true. But, its just that... a portrayal not to be laid out for individual personal judgement. I think when you have that open trust with your audience, you can tell those stories that may be hard. But they deserve to be told. Be fearless in your portrayals!" "Being a life long lover of Cinema, it was an easy choice to find new passion as a Filmmaker. The more films you see and study in your life, and the more life experiences and travels you encounter.. combined this will make you a better Writer/Director." - Norman McGuire
