Paul’s mother was an actress on Broadway and live television in the 1950s, his father a freelance photographer for LIFE Magazine and a cameraman on “The Patty Duke Show,” and his paternal grandfather Samuel Schneider was the executive vice president and treasurer of Warner Bros. from the studio’s inception until 1955.

In 2010, Paul relocated to the Midwest from Los Angeles, where he spent a decade producing and designing DVD/Blu-ray menus and interactive content for Hollywood films and television shows, working on everything from “Star Wars” and “Harry Potter” to “The X-Files” and “Friends” for their home entertainment releases. “Silver Shoes” was Paul’s first novel, selected as a 2010 Kansas Notable Book by the Kansas Center for the Book and the State Library of Kansas. A sequel, “The Powder of Life,” was released in 2012, followed in 2014 by a novelized biography “More Than Tongue Can Tell,” co-authored with Warner Bros. film star Andrea King. In 2018, the “Silver Shoes” series became a trilogy with his latest book “The Magic Belt.”
