Brian Sloan

filmmaker

Brian Sloan is an independent filmmaker. His first feature, the screwball comedy *I Think I Do*, was praised by *the New York Times* as "hysterically funny and very smart." Brian broke onto the indie scene with the short film *Pool Days*, his NYU thesis project. Dealing with the sexual misadventures of a teenage lifeguard, the film screened at more than fifty film festivals, including Sundance and New Directors. Brian helped assemble a package of three short films (including *Pool Days*) around the theme of teen-agers coming out, *Boys Life*, which eventually spawned three sequels. *A Really Nice Prom Mess* is his first novel. Brian lives in New York City.
