Bio:
WILLIAM LANDVOIGT BAYNE grew up in the South, lives in the West, and was educated on the roads somewhere in between. As a young man, he hitchhiked across America, drew comic books, and ran away to join the circus. That didn’t work out long term, so he moved on to advertising and television, using the same skills he picked up shoveling manure with the Ringling Brothers. He has a lot of shiny statues from those filmmaking days.
Writing fiction is a lot more fun than shoveling, so that’s what he does now.
Bayne’s unique voice springs from his long experience as an artist, director and storyteller. His many documentary and commercial honors include: The New York Art Directors Club Award, the Telly, the Addy, the Time-Life Freddie Award, the BLUE Ocean Film Festival Award, and recognition at both the Houston and San Francisco International Film Festivals.
