- About Me
Robert J. Avrech
Los Angeles, California
I'm an Emmy Award winning screenwriter. I'm also an observant Jew, a religious Zionist, a conservative Republican, and a member of the NRA. I've been writing and producing in Hollywood for over twenty-five years. But the focus of my life is my family: my radiant wife, Karen—with whom I have been in love with since I was nine years-old—and my two daughters, who, thankfully, look like Karen. Not too long ago, we had three children. But our son, Ariel, died at the age of twenty-two from cancer. We miss him terribly. We think about him practically every minute of every day. People tell us that time heals, but Karen and I know this is not true. Time grinds away doing its terrible work. Ariel is gone. Yet absence becomes presence.

We are watching a national calamity unfold in slow motion, and we are helpless to stop it. In any case, here are a few photos, most taken by […]

Friday Flickers: Vertigo
No one, but no one could choreograph a kiss like Alfred Hitchcock. Consider the long, roving kiss between Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman in Notorious (1946), the humorous but sensual lip-lock between Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint in North by Northwest (1959), and Grace Kelly’s looming, close-up kiss that metaphorically brings Jimmy Stewart to […]
