Oliver Stone - Other Work

Other Work

In 1993, Stone produced a miniseries for ABC Television called Wild Palms. In a cameo, Stone appears on a television in the show discussing how the theories in his film JFK had been proven correct (the series took place in a hypothetical future, 2007). That same year, he also spoofed himself in the comedy hit Dave, espousing a conspiracy theory about the President's replacement by a near-identical double. In 1997, Stone published A Child's Night Dream (St. Martin's Press), a semiautobiographical novel first written in 1966-1967.

In 2008, Stone was named the Artistic Director of New York University's Tisch School of the Arts Asia in Singapore.

Famous quotes containing the word work:

    It is necessary to get a lot of men together, for the show of the thing,—otherwise the world will not believe. That is the meaning of committees. But the real work must always be done by one or two men.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    To do his work well a workman must first sharpen his tools.
    Chinese proverb.
