BIO 


DAVID ZELTSER is a full-time screenwriter and a Random House published author of seven children's books, with an eighth coming out next year. His holiday feature spec, DETECTIVE CLAUS, was the number one family script on Coverfly and won Cinequest, inspiring Caroline Thompson (writer of The Nightmare Before Christmas) to call it "truly enchanting—a perfect Rubik's cube script."  David lives with his wife and daughter in Santa Cruz, California. His Academy Nicholl-placing script, SOLO, is being produced by Oscar-winning producer Jonathan Sanger (Vanilla Sky, The Producers, Marshall) and James Trezza (Pollock).
