THE ARTS CENTER OF MONTROSS

Sean Gates is the author of the Harry Cogbill series, "The Dark and Lonely Road" and "In the Trackless Wild." He is also the co-writer of several screenplays, including the short film "Lookout Mountain" and 2018 Final Draft Big Break top-five finalist "Shotgun & Lollipop."

 

A graduate of Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia, Sean has worked as a freelance graphic artist, and as a typesetter and imager for a now-defunct print shop in Fredericksburg.

 

He is the co-founder of Project94, an independent non-profit news service covering his hometown of King George County. By day he poses as a mild-mannered stock clerk who enjoys coffee, pizza, and outlaw country.
