Who is Gary Wood?

Gary Wood is an independent filmmaker from Indianapolis, Indiana. He started screenwriting during his six-year service in the U.S. Navy. "Long days aboard the U.S.S. Nassau gave him time to hone his writing," and "once out of the Navy, he kept on writing, whenever possible, while working in a variety of businesses."

In 2001 he wrote a script for Saving Star Wars, "which became a cult movie hit about two Star Wars fans who accidentally kidnap George Lucas." Wood also penned the film Open Mic’Rs, a mockumentary that includes improvisation by stand-up comedians made in Indianapolis.
