Writer/Director John Anthony Gaetano, on sabbatical, is an active member of the Screen Actors Guild of America. He is an actor, writer and director whose talents and ambitions touch upon many areas of the motion picture industry. A serious student of Alfred Hitchcock, Frank Capra and Howard Hawks, formed a company in 1980 called CAP-HITCH-HAWK PRODUCTIONS, and partnered himself with Frank Capra Jr. and Dr. Thelbert Roberts.
