- Larry credits his early interest in writing to his dad, a wonderful wordsmith and storyteller who had an advertising company he aptly named Post 'n Tell. Larry went on to study and work in advertising himself. His love of movies led him to screenwriting, with a focus on family comedy and character-driven drama.
A battle with cancer (Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma) made Larry more determined than ever to inspire others with his own story -- and in the stories he tells. Since 2020, Larry has had four original spec screenplays produced and released, including The Main Event, a Netflix Original; High Holiday, a Peacock Original; Flip Turn, an indie drama available on Amazon; and Sony's 5000 Blankets starring Anna Camp, the 2023 Movieguide Winner as the Most Inspirational Streaming/Television film.
In 2019, Larry became a member of the Writers Guild of America West. In 2020, he was recognized as one of the top "25 Screenwriters to Watch" by the Austin Film Festival, where he also serves as an annual panelist.
Larry does volunteer work for several organizations, including the Lymphoma Research Foundation. He also mentors aspiring writers through Reel Works, the Brooklyn-based teen filmmaking program dedicated to mentoring, inspiring and empowering underserved NYC youth. His mantra is "Become a better person; become a better writer."- IMDb Mini Biography By: Larry Postel
