Welcome to Gary Allison's official website.
Gary is a produced screenwriter as well as producer. From horror to thriller and family to comedy, he has seen his work go to the big screen (almost) as well as to international DVD distribution (for sure). He is also an award winning short story writer .
And here's a cliche' for you. He's a starving artist with a family. Take time to donate some dough to keep him just above the water line. He'll be sure to thank you during an award speech!
Gary Allison was born in Pontiac, MI on March 29, 1972 to Gary and Ruth Ann Allison. He and his family moved around a lot during the 70's and 80's, attempting to capture the American dream in Virginia, Texas, then Florida. In high school, he played football and made a poor attempt at staying out of trouble.
In 1990, Gary joined the Navy and spent three years, eight months and eleven days working within the bowels of Naval Intelligence as a cryptologist. Two of those years were in Misawa, Japan, where again, he made a poor attempt at staying out of trouble.
After the Navy, he began his quest to find his "calling" in life. While working in a mental hospital, Gary decided to go into the family business of law enforcement; however, after graduating from the police academy and during his third interview with the Detroit Police Department, he soon realized this was a horrible mistake. Back to school, Gary wandered between majors before finding a love for creative writing.
Gary's earlier writing endeavors were radio spots and local commercials. He soon moved to playwriting for local productions. Combining his love for movies and writing proved to be the perfect storm,though. In 2005, Gary took a year off from working in the world of below-the-line location work and concentrated soley on screenwriting. It paid off in 2007 with his first feature sale of his screenplay "Cut, Print" to Orlando Entertainment. That same year, he was hired to write a sit-com pilot and began producing for The Detroit Chop Shop. In 2010, Gary made the jump to performing stand-up comedy, winning the Jump Start Your Career contest at Joey's Comedy Club in Livonia, MI.
Gary Allison is a Michigan boy and he resides in Waterford with his wife and two children. He spends his non-writing time traveling and searching for the perfect soup.
