Ron Hutchinson: From Islandmagee to Hollywood
The Emmy Award winning Hollywood scriptwriter Ron Hutchinson grew up in Islandmagee and went on to work with the likes of Marlon Brando, Elizabeth Taylor and Samuel L Jackson.
In this interview he reveals the truth about working with the likes of Brando, how growing up in rural County Antrim and hearing stories about the Larne gun-running inspired him as a writer and how an IRA bomb in Coventry changed his career path forever.
His new book 'Clinging to the Iceberg: Writing for a Living on the Stage and in Hollywood' is published by Oberon and will be out next month.
