Ben Fiore is a retired
NYC Police Officer who followed his lifelong fascination with the cinema
by taking on the craft of screenwriting.
He penned several short screenplays which were developed into compelling
films, two of which went on to become the official selections of three
major New York film festivals. A sometime character actor and police
film technical advisor, he appeared in several feature and short films,
mostly portraying a police officer.
In May of 2006, Ben was awarded a 'second place' nod in Hollywood's
'An Abbreviated Screenplay Contest' with his chilling short, "On
a Dark Street", now a compelling feature length screenplay.
He is a friend and colleague of stunt performer/actor/producer, Mark
Riccardi, the stunt double for major film stars like John Travolta and
Anthony LaPaglia.
Ben resides in New York's Long Island with his wife, Marci, and their
two sons, Stephen and Christopher.
