Meeting/Opportunity

This morning I met with Stephen Zapotoczny, the vice president of Wheelhouse Entertainment,
Randall Wallace's company. For any that don't know, Mr. Wallace is a duke alum (as is Steve), who wrote Braveheart and Pearl Harbor. He also wrote, directed, and produced We Were Soldiers and The Man in the Iron Mask. For his work on Braveheart, he received the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Original Screenplay as well as Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations.

There is a possibility of an internship with Wheelhouse for spring or summer, depending upon their shooting schedule.

We are also going to try very hard to get Mr. Wallace to come to class at some point, as keynote for the conference if his schedule permits, or at some other point in the semester. We want Steve to participate as well.

It's shaping up to be a very exciting semester.
