Biography

Samuel Garza Bernstein has written stage plays and musicals, television shows, movies, and books; working in Los Angeles, New York, and London.[2] He dove into show business immediately upon graduating high school in Texas, moving to New York at the age of 17. After studying at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts he began to work as an actor and singer, most notably playing the role of "Magaldi" in various productions of Evita.[2] In the early 90s he started writing, and his first play, "The Liquidation of Granny Peterman," was produced in Hollywood. The Los Angeles Times said, "Samuel Bernstein's insights into what keeps families together are as rich as a holiday pudding."[14]

While writing and rewriting the script that would become his first film, Silent Lies, he worked on his first book, a photo-anthology called "Uncommon Heroes" that won a Stonewall Book Award[15] from the American Library Association in 1996. Bernstein and his partner on the project, Phillip Sherman, tied with writer Dorothy Allison. His book about the rise and fall of Confidential (magazine) in the 1950s, "Mr. Confidential" was published by Walford Press in 2007 and Liz Smith proclaimed that, "It reads like a house afire in a sultry swamp!".[16] He adapted the project with composer David Snyder as a stage musical that premiered in 2014 at the New York Musical Theatre Festival.

Among his many other film and television projects, one of his favorites is Bobbie's Girl[2] which starred Bernadette Peters, Rachel Ward, and Jonathan Silverman, and marked the film debut of Thomas Sangster, the young actor who would go on to star in Love, Actually and Nanny McPhee among his many other films.[1] Bernadette Peters received an Emmy nomination while the film received a Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation nomination and a citation from The Advocate as one of the top ten television events of the year.[citation needed]
