He studied at Semester at Sea and London's City College before graduating from Tulane University, later attending Tulane's A.B. Freeman School of Business for his MBA.In the 1990s, Davlin worked as a combat war correspondent during the Yugoslav conflict. He went on to hold positions in the oilfield industry and in structured and international finance. As a CEO, he successfully turned around the largest manufacturer of high-end decorative goods in America-an achievement that earned him a job offer from Warren Buffett's former turnaround master, which he declined. Due to economic policies under President Clinton, Davlin was later forced to offshore manufacturing production to China. After a period living in Hong Kong and Southern China, he shut down the company, unwilling to contribute further to the rise of Chinese communism that he viewed as a growing threat to America's liberty.Shifting to Hollywood, Davlin became a studio screenwriter, penning major films such as the Jackie Chan action movie The Medallion (distributed by Sony, Columbia TriStar). His novel Memory became an international bestseller, published by The Berkley Imprint of Penguin and translated into multiple foreign languages by Sony Books, Blanvalet, and Random House. He went on to write, direct, and produce the film adaptation of Memory, released worldwide by Warner Bros. and EBE. In television, Davlin collaborated with Randy Douthit (co-creator of CNN's Crossfire and Judge Judy) under a first-look deal with CBS Paramount. He has guest lectured at NYU, The Tennessee Williams Festival, and other academic venues. Since 2017, he has been a contributing essayist and political commentator at CenteredAmerica.com, focusing on policy, economics, and philosophy. In 2020, he ran as a non-treasonous Democrat for U.S. president. He is an alumnus of Sigma Phi Epsilon, and a proud member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks.view less
