David Lynch as Gordon Cole in "Twin Peaks" season three, leaning back with his eyes closed and whistling while sitting in front of his desk

Available Now: “The Dreamer’s Path: Twin Peaks and David Lynch the Actor”

This personal site has been dormant for far too long, as I plied my craft at various publications. But now… I’ve written a book! It’s called The Dreamer’s Path: Twin Peaks and David Lynch the Actor, and if you like David Lynch, cinema or even just things that are interesting and objectively cool, I think you would quite enjoy it. Much, much more on it soon, but it’s an exhaustively researched deep dive into every on-screen performance from Lynch, exploring how this unique and heretofore unexplored part of his enormous creative output intersects with his broader embrace of “the art life,” and the fullness of what that came to mean to him over the course of his life. All the notable hits receive loving treatment, by way of 70-plus exclusive interviews, plus relevant excerpts from my numerous conversations with Lynch over the years. But do I also grapple with the notion of performance art, and whether Lynch appearing in public with a cow “counts” as a performance? Yes, yes I do.
