Born in New York and educated at Beloit College in Wisconsin, Roy has been Associate Editor for the nationally renowned Beloit Poetry Journal, and for the national desk of The New York Times. He later received a Master's Degree in English Literature from the University of Michigan, where he wrote and directed "Persona Non Grata," an Ann Arbor International Film Festival prize winner. Roy has been a writer of songs recorded by Aretha Franklin, Patti LaBelle, Smoky Robinson, Gloria Estefan, Alan Jackson and many others, while under exclusive contracts to Warner Brothers and EMI Music. As a screenwriter, Roy has written "City of Silence" for DreamWorks, and "Frontin'," with his wife Debrah, for Fox Searchlight. Roy adapted his novel "Winged Creatures," for dramatic ensemble feature film, starring Academy Award winners Forest Whitaker and Jennifer Hudson, nominee Jackie Earle Haley, Kate Beckinsale, Guy Pearce, Dakota Fanning, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Embeth Davditz and Troy Garity. "Winged Creatures" explodes the myth of "closure" with an after-the-cameras-go-home look at the real and lasting trauma of gun violence-- ordinary people driven by secret torments and dangerous compulsions, in flight from their own memories and dreams. His latest work is the novella, "Sarah," included in the new edition of "Deprivation."
