Sean Michael Mallory was born in upstate New York where he studied film at the Career & Technical Institute and graduated at the top of his class. During his enrollment at the school, he got his first taste of the big budget production process when he worked as a production assistant on the short film "Thanksgiving". After realizing a penchant for writing, he went on to pen multiple unproduced screenplays. In 2007, after briefly studying the craft in Los Angeles, he was published by Marvel Comics (Patriot Factor; Issue #1, the result of an online writing contest sponsored by Chrysler). Since then he has worked on multiple shorts and is rumored to be developing an original web series to begin production in Spring 2014.
