Luke Davies
Screenwriter, Novelist, Essayist, Poet
Luke Davies’ adapted screenplay for the 2016 movie “Lion” was nominated for an academy award; the movie itself earned a nomination for Best Picture. But the native of Australia is more than an acclaimed screenwriter. His first writing love, starting at the age of 16, is poetry. His novel, “Candy,” was made into a movie of the same name, starring Heath Ledger. In this presentation, Davies reads from his fiction and poetry.
