In the first part of this interview actor, producer and screenwriter Adam G Simon walks us through his life’s journey, from his Leona Valley school days; to trying his hand at stand-up comedy (age 11) at a community centre in the Mojave desert, dealing with the darkness of being homeless and the turning point that got him off the streets and inspired his feature screen writing debut "Man Down" directed by Dito Montiel in 2015 starring Shia LaBeouf, Kate Mara and Gary Oldman.

Stay tuned for Part two to be released in the coming days...where our conversation weaves in laughter and love for Anthony Mackie, and upcoming projects with Joe Lynch and Joe Carnahan.
