WRITER: CYNTHIA CURNAN, PhD

Cynthia Curnan is a published author and accomplished screenwriter. Prior to writing ROAD TO HELL she wrote INVASION aka INFECTION and COOL AIR. Both feature films are in the horror genre. INVASION, released by Lions Gate, is described as a "riveting experiment in horror" and COOL AIR is an adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's short story of the same title. Cynthia was also executive producer on BULLETFACE.

Her screenplay, TALES OF AN ANCIENT EMPIRE is finishing filming, and Cynthia is also working on a sequel to Albert Pyun’s cult hit, MEAN GUNS.

Cynthia wrote the acclaimed non-fiction work, The Care and Feeding of Perfectionists. Prior to her writing career she was a licensed psychotherapist practicing in Los Angeles until the end of 1999. She received her Ph.D. from Ryokan College.

She has also worked as a mental health professional in city and county jails and within the criminal justice system. She developed a program, Fresh Start, which assists inmates suffering from mental illness and substance addiction to receive the services necessary for successful transition from jail back into their communities.

Cynthia was born and raised in San Francisco. She currently resides near Seattle, Washington with her family. She has recently completed an autobiographical screenplay, "LOOKOUT" and she's writing a novelization of the story.

Cynthia enjoys applying her knowledge of psychology to craft darkly twisted stories and characters.
