Mike Mann(VII)
- Writer

- Director
Mike Mann (no, not THAT Michael Mann) is a non-binary (he/him), pre-WGA screenwriter originally from Minneapolis. His amazing wife and son are a constant source of inspiration and support.
He loves to write in a variety of genres and believes that humor is a key factor in getting the audience to like and relate to characters, no matter what genre the film is. Once you laugh along with a film, you care more when the characters are put through the wringer.
With degrees in Theater Performance from Normandale Community College and Film Production from Minnesota State University, he approaches his scripts from all angles, knowing both what attracts actors and what the practical side of shooting entails. He strives for everything he writes to pop off the page and onto your mental movie screen... and you don't even need to sit through previews first!
A long time dabbler, he only recently decided to pursue his writing career in earnest. Scripts available upon request.
He is enthusiastic, hard-working and easy-going. Always ready to collaborate and work for hire.
He has a passion for helping others. Alongside his wife he co-founded the non-profit organization "Moms Help Moms" in Columbus, dedicated to connecting families to create a community of caring and charity. Their Facebook page is over 11.5K members strong, allowing families to donate and trade any and all needed items to each other as well as get parenting advice, easy access to government resources and various charitable events.
11 years sober, he has overcome many hardships to get where he is today and is grateful for every moment.
