Stephen Berkley is a writer and documentary film producer in New York. Although Stephen has worn multiple hats inside the entertainment/media industry for over thirty years, Living With Ghosts is his first fully self-produced feature film. The story idea came with the death of Stephen’s father when shortly afterward his mother began reporting interactions with whom she believed to be his father’s ghost — which naturally begged the question: Are ghosts a real phenomenon or merely symptomatic of profound grief? Living With Ghosts is the culmination of a seven-year investigation into the nature of love, loss, and postmortem communication and features three survivors in their quest for answers.
