Stephen Kogon

Hey Guys! Thanks for checking in to learn a little about me.

I grew up in Columbia, MD and wrote my first story at 7-years-old—and have been addicted to storytelling ever since. I loved it so much that I considered my pencil to be one of my best friends!

Since then, I’ve written books, screenplays/scripts, comedy sketches, and comic strips—I love it all!

I went to college at UMBC and upon graduation I moved to Los Angeles to work as a writer and filmmaker.

My latest work is the novel UNCONDITIONAL. I spent two years writing it, and it was a labor of love. I also hope to make it my second feature film.

My first film DANCE BABY DANCE was released in 2018. I wrote it, produced it, directed it, and acted in it. I loved every hat I got to wear!

I grew up on the west side of Chicago, off of Central and Division, with my 12 siblings and parents. The environment was bad but my family and I found ways to distract ourselves from the violence: by filming home movies, starting a band, hosting family award shows and brainstorming ideas for movies and tv shows. I owe my drive for creativity to them. I started writing at 8 years old, badly at that, but I've improved my hobby. I began composing piano instrumentals around the same age. My video editing hobby started about 2 years ago, I began diving into that by producing book trailers for writers online and even for myself.
