SUMMARY:The Bookloft & Mahaiwe Present: A Live Conversation with Terry Hayes/New Book Release: Year of the Locust
DESCRIPTION:WAMC Radio’s Joe Donahue interviews screenwriter and novelist Terry Hayes on the eve of his first publication in a decade, The Year of the Locust. \nTerry Hayes is a former journalist and screenwriter. Born in Sussex, England, he migrated to Australia as a child and trained as a journalist at the country’s leading broadsheet. At twenty-one he was appointed North American correspondent, based in New York, and after two years returned to Sydney to become an investigative reporter, political correspondent and columnist. \nHe resigned to produce a prominent current affairs radio program and a short time later, with George Miller, wrote the screenplay for Road Warrior/Mad Max 2. He also co-produced and wrote Dead Calm, the film which launched Nicole Kidman’s international movie career, Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome and a large number of TV movies and mini-series – including Bodyline and Bangkok Hilton – two of which received international Emmy nominations. In all, he has won over twenty film or television awards. \nAfter moving to Los Angeles he worked as a screenwriter on major studio productions. His credits include Payback with Mel Gibson, From Hell, starring Johnny Depp, and Vertical Limit with Chris O’Donnell. He has also done un-credited writing on a host of other movies including Reign of Fire, Cliffhanger and Flightplan, starring Jodie Foster. \nThe Year of the Locust is Terry Hayes’ second novel. His first, I Am Pilgrim was an international bestseller. He and his American wife – Kristen – have four children and live in Switzerland.\n
