Torus Tammer (born 1969) is an Australian film maker. ==Career== Tammer was born in Melbourne, Australia and moved to Los Angeles in 1992 and began working odd jobs on low-budget films. During this period, he met film producers Mike Erwin and Max Kirishima. Erwin and Kirishima hired Tammer to work for their production company, Den Pictures. While at Den, Tammer worked on the development of a remake of the classic cult film Easy Rider (the rights to which Den Pictures owned). With the encouragement of Erwin and Kirishima, Tammer began developing two pet projects (Golgo 13 and Preacher). Both projects were adaptations of comic books; "Golgo 13" (AKA The Professional) by the legendary Japanese comic book artist Takao Saito and "Preacher" which at the time, was a cutting edge new series for Vertigo/DC comics created by Garth Ennis. Both projects never made it through the development phase and Tammer embarked on a solo career. In 1995, Tammer worked in development for Valerie Kearns and screenwriter James V. Hart (at the now defunct HBI Pictures). After a short stint, Tammer (in 1996) decided to begin his own independent project so he wrote and subsequently directed "Lone Greasers". It was here that he met close friend and future producing partner Daniel Dubiecki. Dubiecki produced Lone Greasers which showcased an ensemble cast of veteran character actors including former X front man John Doe, Peter Dobson and Mariah O'Brien. Tammer continued writing and directing until 1999 at which point, he decided to focus solely on his writing career. From 1999-2001, Tammer worked as a writer for the Los Angeles Times where he won acclaim for his investigative work. In particular, Tammer worked on a 9-month case that resulted in exposing corrupt neo-conservative police officer and politician Charles "Chuck" Conlosh. After his stint with the LA Times, Tammer continued working as a freelancer, writing stories for a variety of publications. In 2003 Tammer left L.A. and returned to Australia.〔 In 2004, Tammer and partner Daniel Dubiecki optioned the best selling Australian true crime novels "Undercover" and "White Lies". Tammer and Dubiecki are currently developing the feature film adaptation of Undercover.〔 http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/juno-dan-dubiecki-australian-torus-tammer-red-hill-patrick-hughs-309713 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Torus Tammer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
