Multi-medium artist Richard Rossi was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. After working in his hometown as a guitar-playing minister, he journeyed from scripture to script, migrating west on a three-thousand mile cross-country journey to Hollywood to pursue his interest in acting and filmmaking. FILM: Richard is an Academy Award-considered filmmaker. His feature dramatic film "Sister Aimee: The Aimee Semple McPherson Story" was voted one of the greatest guerrilla films of all-time and was nominated for best film in Milan. He recently released his latest dramatic feature film "Baseball's Last Hero: 21 Clemente Stories," on Amazon and his "Richard Rossi 5th Anniversary of Sister Aimee" also contains his Oscar-considered documentary "Saving Sister Aimee" and other bonus extras. BOOKS: Rossi recently gave a radio interview about his popular books. "I wrote my novel 'Stick Man' for my own catharsis and healing after my Dad died," Rossi said. "I hope it brings some healing for others who have experienced loss or pain in life and love. My second book, 'Create Your Life,' came about organically without any intention of writing it. Creative people have contacted me over the years asking for advice and encouragement. I answered their questions in emails and blogs. I had an "Aha!" moment recently when I realized I had a couple hundred pages of material answering these questions artists asked me. I wrote a little more on the subject and organized it into the book 'Create Your Life.' "Sister Aimee: The Aimee Semple McPherson Story'" is my third book, and contains my thoughts on the famous female faith-healing evangelist who was the subject of two of my movies I made. The book contains my screenplay from my feature dramatic film on her life." MUSIC: Amazon also is the exclusive venue for Richard's popular music CDs "Without Her Love," "Seasons of My Heart," and "The Kingdom Is Near."FAMILY AND FAN CLUB: Richard lives with Sherrie, his wife of thirty-one years, and their two children, Karis and Joshua, in Hollywood, California.
