Andrew Maclear

Already interested in photography, he went to London and found a job as a messenger with a film production company where he eventually began training as an editor.

Andrew Maclear produced several documentaries including a profile of Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, the Swiss born psychologist who challenged and liberated the American perception toward death and the care of the dying.

Maclear moved into screen writing in the early 80's and spent a decade in Los Angeles from where he wrote a number of speculative screenplays which were optioned by a gamut of producers, amongst them George Harrison’s Handmade Films, Alan Marshall and Alan Parker, and the Hollywood producers Jack Wiener and Dodi Fayed.

In the early 80's, following the success of a feature film set in the city of London starring Rebecca de Mornay, he developed a 26 hour TV series for English television on the same theme; money traders and their lives.

[7][8] He continues to sell and speak about his photographs from London during the nineteen sixties, many of which are acknowledged as being emblematic of this extraordinary cultural and sociological period.
