Backstory Story: Bruce Joel Rubin

Send us a text

I was thinking about how screenwriters spend a lot of time coming up with a backstory for their characters, so I thought it would be fun to turn the tables and delve into the backstory of a screenwriter. 

Bruce Joel Rubin is an American screenwriter, meditation teacher, and photographer. His films often explore themes of life and death with metaphysical and science fiction elements. Jacob's Ladder, My Life, and Ghost are prominent among them, for which he received the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay.
