William Goodhart

Biography

William Goodhart is a Broadway playwright and screenwriter whose interest in theology and the occult led him to the original ideas for both Generation (1969) and Exorcist II: The Heretic (1977). Much of the inspiration for his stories came from Teilhard de Chardin who believed that man and nature would inspire to a oneness with god. Goodhart got that great task in 1999 when he sadly passed away of cancer.
