Norman Twain created the idea, developed the script, and produced Lean on Me, starring Morgan Freeman as Joe Clark, the Principal of Eastside High School in Paterson, New Jersey.
Norman was the producer of the awarding winning HBO film Boycott, dramatizing the 1955 Montgomery, Alabama Bus Boycott, Spinning into Butter, based on Rebecca Gilman’s award winning play, and SCAR, the first 3D action horror film in 26 years.
Norman’s latest production is My Dog Tulip, the celebrated novel by J.R. Ackerley, that is being made into a full length animated feature. Paul Fierlinger is the film’s director, screen writer and sole animator and his wife Sandra is his background and image painter. This film will be the first animated feature ever to be entirely hand drawn and painted utilizing paperless computer technology.
