He joined the faculty of York University as a professor of screenwriting in the film department in 1995, and eventually became chair of the department. The Fishing Trip, his first feature film as a director, was written by Michelle Lovretta, one of his students at York. In 2005 he published the screenwriting text The Way of the Screenwriter, and released Whole New Thing as his second feature film. Following Whole New Thing he worked on Mortal Coil, a television pilot. Although it was never picked up to series, he published a novel based on it in 2014. In 2015 he released the film Traveling Medicine Show, a compilation of three short docufiction films in which he and his own family had played fictionalized versions of themselves. The following year he released his final film, the interactive documentary Biology of Story. He died on November 30, 2019 of cancer. (en)
