ABOUT THE AUTHOR 

Jack Kemper is a screenwriter, essayist, poet, and unapologetic film lover from the quiet left hand corner of the Pacific Northwest. For years, he’s been scribbling away in the shadows of art collectives in Tacoma and Bainbridge Island, diving headfirst into the raw, messy world of creative expression.

In 2021, he traded the brutal overcast of Washington for the Los Angeles haze, where he's pushing his way through the grind of screenwriting—turning his obsession with film into something more than just late-night rants and cinematic reverie. Along the way, Jack has begun to embrace film criticism as a natural extension of his passion for cinema. Now, alongside his screenwriting work, he critiques films, exploring them with a critical eye and offering fresh insights, while still keeping his love for storytelling at the heart of it all.
