SUMMARY:An Afternoon with Michael Jarvis in conversation with Jim Bigham
DESCRIPTION:Author Michael Jarvis will discuss his latest novel “The Location Scout” at a public book event. Admission is free and open to the public. Books will be available for purchase during the event. An RSVP grants general entry\, but seating is limited and not guaranteed. \n\n\n\nThe novel follows Miami location scout Lucas Sloan after he takes a job scouting locations in the Bahamas for a television commercial and later joins a film production centered on the sugar industry in the Dominican Republic. As the story unfolds\, Sloan navigates the pressures of the film business while dealing with the consequences of a past mistake from a previous project. The narrative moves through the social and racial dynamics of the host country while following Sloan’s attempts to manage the demands and unpredictability of film production. \n\n\n\nJarvis grew up in an Air Force family and spent his childhood in Alabama\, Texas\, Ohio\, Guam\, Georgia\, and England. He graduated from Florida International University with degrees in Fine Arts and English and lives in Miami. His previous works include “Field of Vision\,”The Path of the Tapir\,” and the fiction trilogy “Dog-Head: Tales from the Neotropics.” Before becoming a full time writer\, he worked for many years scouting and managing locations for film productions. \n\n\n\nThe conversation will be moderated by Jim Bigham\, a graduate of the London Film School and a member of the Directors Guild of America. Bigham has produced feature films\, television series\, documentaries\, and commercials for more than five decades. His credits include work on films such as “Black Widow\,” “Spider Man\,” “Ms Marvel\,” “Dumbo\,” “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children\,” “Magic Mike\,” “Great Expectations\,” “Body Heat\,” and “Bad Boys.” He produced the feature film “Sweetland\,” which received an Independent Spirit Award\, and the Oscar nominated documentary Chasing the Dream. Bigham also directed and produced the documentary “For Once In My Life.”
