    Tell us a little about yourself.  I'm a radio, TV and film producer. My company is Falcon Picture Group. I produced the film "Madison" starring Jim Caviezel. Stacy Keach hosts my syndicated radio series "The Twilight Zone Radio Dramas" which airs on hundreds of stations and XM/Sirius. I host a radio show called "Hollywood 360" heard each Saturday evening from 8 PM till 1 AM Sunday morning on Chicago radio station WIND AM 560. I founded the company Radio Spirits which is the largest licensor and seller of classic radio shows.

    What was your motivation behind this project?  As a lifelong Catholic, I wanted to produce a celebrity voiced dramatized audio Bible for Catholics. I spent four years producing "The Word of Promise" audio Bible which is from the NKJV translation. I spent nearly 2 years working on "The Truth & Life" New Testament which is from the RSV-CE.

    What do you hope folks will gain from this project?  I hope people will understand the meaning of these immortal words better. I am a huge fan of radio drama and believe that when the words are performed for you by world class actors, augmented by sound effects and music, the meaning is clearer.

    How were you personally impacted by working on this project?  It has made me a more devote person and has helped me know the Bible and God better..

    Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists?  God, my family and friends are my richest source of inspiration.

    Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know:  Back in the golden age of radio and TV, families would gather around the radio and television to enjoy the programming as a family unit. Today's that doesn't happen as much as I think it should. I hope families will listen to this audio New Testament together and that it brings them great joy, hope, love and togetherness.
