ROB
MELTZER, Co-Writer/Director
Rob Meltzer began his career as a child actor, though he wasnt
very good at it. If you ever see the "Kate and Allie" Halloween
special from 1988, hes the trick-or-treating kid who looks right
into camera like a deer caught in headlights. It was around this time
that young Rob realized that he was better suited to be a director.
Since graduating from USCs School of Cinema-Television, Rob has
directed episodes of a live action kids adventure series for the
internet called "Royal Standard", episodes of Dick Wolfs
TV show "Arrest and Trial", and numerous promos and commercials.

USCs School of Cinema-Television, Alex has written and produced
a wide variety of narrative and documentary projects including 30 episodes
of Dick Wolfs "Arrest & Trial", a childrens

which follows a dysfunctional family that fights, throws things at each
other and builds custom motorcycles. When the show became the highest
rated series in the history of the Discovery Channel, Alex was tapped
to simultaneously produce the inevitable spin off, "American Hot
Rod", which follows a dysfunctional group of mechanics that fight,
throw things at each other and build custom cars. The show has quickly
become the second highest rated series on the network.
