Walt Price- Director

Academy Award and Emmy nominated Director Walt Price began his career in television, doing episodes of such hits as "Bronstein & Lonergan", "Vice Squad" and "The Gaffer". He then went on to direct and produce the Emmy award winning 5 part series The Lincoln Bedroom. He followed that with one of the biggest hits of the 80's "Young Turks". This edgy drama broke new ground and forever changed the meaning of the word "koosh".

After a 5 year run of Turks, Walt teamed with producer and longtime friend Marty Rossen for his first theatrical film, Breach of Tort, a legal thriller starring Chet Carter and Nina Stanson. Respected for his willingness to take risks: Walt has since directed a wide range of films from the bittersweet comedy Moping, Montana to the action hit Pigtails of Fury starring the Olsen twins. Yet no film defines Walt's fearless creativity better than last year's breakout hit Ghandi 2 starring Bob Barrenger. Widely hailed as "The most daring sequel ever"- this tale of the reincarnation of the pioneer of peaceful protest, earned Walt his first Academy Award nomination and Best Director honors at The Stuttgart Film Festival. The Old Mill is Walt Price's 4th movie with producer Marty Rossen. The two are longtime friends and collaborators. Extremely superstitious, Walt never goes on location without his lucky pillow.

Joseph Turner White - writer

Joseph Turner White has been called "The future of the American theatre"(Dramatist Monthly) His first play Terry's Furnace was an off Broadway hit and awakened critics and fans alike to a powerful new voice. White's next play was 4 years in the making, but when Anguish finally premiered at the Earl Grey Theatre in London's West End, it proved to be more than worth it's wait. The story of a man who is electrocuted and then forced to deal with the stark aftermath, Anguish broke new dramatic ground. Incorporating elaborate stunts and effects seamlessly into an allegory of the sometimes unfair fates of those around us, Anguish made White the youngest playwright ever to win an Obie award.

The Old Mill is Joseph Turner White's first screenplay. In his own words: "It is a film about the quest for purity, and while told in 19th century New England, I think is a theme that resonates today. Purity is not something that is achieved easily, sometimes you need a second chance and that is what Frank needs in this film, a second chance."

Joseph Turner White's other works include the one act plays: The Pacifier, Moods And The Psychedelic Scone He often uses Nuns and Fire as important symbols in his work.

Marty Rossen - Producer

Marty Rossen is one of Hollywood's most successful producers. A native of Brooklyn, New York and graduate of Loyola University law school, Mr. Rossen got his start in the business in the 1970's managing the soul group The Divines. When the group split, Marty and lead singer Albert Devine got together to produce the whitesploitation hit Cheese and Cracker. This low budget tale of two country club waiters who become make shift detectives to the social elite, made big bucks at the box office. Marty's success followed him into the eighties with hit comedies like American Car Salesman and the spring break classic Tallahassee Tailgate. This light fare was balanced by more serious films like Return to the Serengeti, Detroit Doctors and the controversial Wall Street classic Bare Market (nominated for an Academy Award). Next, Marty began a thriving partnership with Director Walt Price. This collaboration spawned the legal thriller Breach of Tort, the action hit Pigtails of Fury and the epic Ghandi 2. Mr. Rossen's upcoming productions include Tal Epperson's Rustic Harbor and Fortitude starring Kurt Lewis and Dinah Murphy. He recently purchased the rights to Ted Kennedy's life story. Mr. Rossen's movies often have scenes where money is thrown at people.
