Author Bio:
JONATHAN LAPOMA is a 160x award-winning, optioned screenwriter, Kirkus/Barnes & Noble-recommended novelist, songwriter, and professional voice actor (Netflix) based in Mexico City.

A Buffalo, NY native, LaPoma’s creative voice was forged during a prolific decade of profound isolation where he translated internal struggle into a massive catalog of songs, scripts, and novels. This period earned him significant industry validation, including his black comedy screenplay, HARM FOR THE HOLIDAYS, which was optioned by legendary producer WARREN ZIDE (American Pie, Final Destination) and Wexlfish Pictures.
