In February 2013, Mr. Ver Wiel successfully concluded negotiations with Parkway Productions and Penny Marshall (Big, A League of Their Own) for his original screenplay The Belle Star Friendly to be both produced and directed by Ms. Marshall in March 2013.
Mr. Ver Wiel released the fiction novel Starbuck’s Nation in May 2008. Described as a post modern fairy tale, Starbucks Nation (Arcade Publishing, NY) is a contemporary satire on American pop culture lampooning America’s seemingly endless fascination with celebrity, reality programming and the overwhelming deluge of information and technology.
Mr. Ver Wiel received a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Arizona and has lived extensively abroad. He currently makes his home in Marina Del Rey, California.view less
