Bob Krakower - Writing and Directing

Writing and Directing

For many years, Krakower was a theatre director, producing and/or directing over 100 plays around the country, a majority of them new works by American authors. As he moved into film & television, his coaching work evolved into directing assignments, including stints on ““What I Like About You,”” (starring Amanda Bynes and Jennie Garth), “Reba.” (starring Reba McEntire) and “I Say Nay, Nay” a concert starring comedian John Pinette. Over the years, he has written several plays that have been published and performed around the country. These include “Mixed Emotions,” “No-Win Situation,” and the very popular “4a.m. (Open All Night), which was made into a film starring Tate Donovan and Wendy Makkena, directed by J. Miller Tobin. His script “Bobby Z” (written with partner Allen Lawrence) was directed by John Herzfeld, and starred Paul Walker, Laurence Fishburne, and Olivia Wilde. Currently in development (also with Mr. Lawrence) are “Ramblin’ Man: Woody Guthrie” and “Any Rough Times.”
