Jeff Lindsay: Dexter And Riley Wolfe

Join Trish and Rob for a conversation with... Jeff Lindsay, the award-winning author of the NY Times Best-Selling 'Dexter' novels upon which the hit Showtime TV show "Dexter" was based. His books have appeared in 44 languages around the world. Although he’s a full-time writer now, Jeff has worked as an actor, comic, director, playwright, MC, bouncer, teacher, columnist, TV host, singer, songwriter, composer, musician, steel worker, sportscaster, dishwasher, screenwriter, cook, detective, gardener and sailing instructor. In Hollywood, Jeff worked 4 years for Steve Allen, did improv, and led a Noh-Wave band, The Fabulous Dorx. He went on to work for 6 years as a story analyst, script doctor and screenwriter, with John Davis, Joe Dante, Mike Finell, Warner Bros, Fries Entertainment, Fox, and others, and even had breakfast with Steven Spielberg. He has taught writing and screenwriting at the university level and at many workshops around the country, and has written more two dozen produced plays. We should also say that we have known Jeff and his writer wife, Hilary Hemingway, for a couple of decades…and I’ve always stood clear of Jeff when he’s in his kitchen with a sharp knife in his hand. (That’s a Dexter joke.) http://jefflindsaybooks.com
