Korey Green
Korey Green was born and raised on the East Side in Buffalo, NY . Growing up in the inner city of a dying community wasn't easy. In a neighborhood where most people chose the street life, which ultimately would lead to jail time or death, college was almost not an option. After High School, Korey made the decision to continue his education at Alfred State College where he pursued his interest in Creative Writing. "The Forgotten City" is Korey's first project and the concept was birthed out of his experiences living in Buffalo . The film explores Green's talents as not only a writer, but also as a director. Since completing "The Forgotten City" Green has also collaborated with Henderson to write two short films; "Exit 14" and "War at Home". Currently, Green is developing, "The John Walker Story", a short film which he plans to direct. |
