Stefano Tummolini was born in Rome in 1969; after getting a degree in films’ history and critics at the University of Rome, he has been working as writer, translator, and as independent filmmaker.
He collaborated to the screenwriting of several tv series and feature films, The Turkish Bath (Il bagno turco) by Ferzan Ozpetek, among others. He directed many shorts and he wrote a Neil Jordan’s biography (Dino Audino Editore, 1996) and an essay about the melodramma in the cinema(Lo specchio della vita, Lindau 1999).
Since 2004 he teaches screenwriting at the Scuola Holden in Turin.
In 2005, two of his novels have been published in the collection Men on Men 4 by Oscar Mondadori and in 2008 his first novel, La guerra dei sessi, has been published by Liberamente Editore.
