New Jersey native Bill Mesce's first novel, The
Advocate, was a winner in the America’s Best competition, and was
followed by two equally acclaimed sequels, Officer of the Court and
The Defender, as well as several non-fiction works including The
Wild Bunch: The American Classic that Changed Westerns Forever and
A Screenwriter’s Notebook: Reflections, Analyses, and Chalk Talks
on the Craft and Business of Writing for the Movies. His most
recent novel is the police drama Median Gray. His
screenwriting credits include Road Ends, starring Dennis Hopper
and Mariel Hemingway, and uncredited work on Brian DePalma’s political
thriller Blow Out. A Jersey Cantata was named one
of the best new NJ plays when it originally premiered.
