Trevor Miller is a Actor, Director and Scriptwriter American born on 5 october 1965 at Manchester (United-kingdom)
Trevor Miller is a screenwriter, author and playwright who Record Mirror joked “is hailed by some as the voice of a generation.” His plays include HEART OF SATURDAY NIGHT and THE FLESH TRADER both of which debuted at The London New Play Festival. His first book, Trip City (novel), was published in 1989 by Brian Aldiss' Avernus Press; and dubbed by The Evening Standard as "An On The Road for the post warehouse party generation. ” More recently, Miller has lived in Los Angeles working on screenplays with a diverse roster of actors including Sylvester Stallone, Ryan O'Neal and Laurence Fishburne.
Growing up in Manchester, England during the heyday of Factory Records, The Haçienda and the tail-end of Punk Rock – Miller spent formative years in his father’s Rocksteady record shop, before moving to London, where he studied Media at the University of Westminster.
After brief stints in journalism, rock videos and music management, Miller became a well known fixture in various West End nightclubs serving as promoter, DJ and even doorman. During the youth-culture explosion of the late 80s, Miller was instrumental in the launch of Dazed & Confused (magazine), pioneered various venues like The Brain (club) and help art direct the flyers and interiors that would serve as the backdrop of Acid house.
The publication of TRIP CITY lead to various staged readings and Miller’s one-man-show which played at the Institute of Contemporary Arts, Edinburgh Festival, Bluecoat Chambers and Axis in New York City. That in turn lead to work in the branding and marketing sector at Blue Source.
In 1993, Miller moved to Los Angeles, where he launched Men’s Perspective Magazine and became Editorial Director of Metropolis Publications. As a figure on the U.S. publishing scene, Miller was quoted in The Wall Street Journal and Folio. From there he segued to internet publishing and web-development which would ultimately shift into a career as a screenwriter.
After working on numerous films and rewrites at Franchise Pictures, Miller had been fast tracked from Jean Claude Van Damme, through Steven Seagal to Sylvester Stallone - his own independent endeavors financed by more formulaic commercial fare.
Over recent years he has worked with a diverse roster of Directors including Larry Clarke, James Gartner and Bernard Rose. Miller’s debut as a writer/director is a feature film entitled [[Riot On Redchurch Street].

Bobby Boucher is a socially inept water boy with a stutter and hidden anger issues due to constant teasing and excessive sheltering by his mother, Helen (Kathy Bates). He became the water boy for the (fictional) University of Louisiana Cougars after being told his father died of dehydration in the Sahara while serving in the Peace Corps. However, the players always torment him and the team's head coach, Red Beaulieu (Jerry Reed), eventually fires him for "disrupting" the team's practices (in actuality, the coach had fired Bobby because he's too weak for his team to bully). Bobby then approaches Coach Klein (Henry Winkler) of the South Central Louisiana State University Mud Dogs and asks to work as the team's water boy. Coach Klein has been coach of SCLSU for years without success. It is revealed later in the movie that he and Beaulieu were assistant coaches at the University of Louisiana, but Beaulieu bullied Klein into letting him take sole credit for a playbook (that Klein actually came up with on his own) to earn the head coach job and then immediately fired Klein. The experience drove Klein to a mental breakdown and rendered him unable to come up with new plays. Furthermore, unlike the Cougars, the Mud Dogs are a struggling team both on and off the field. They have lost 40 consecutive games, their cheerleaders have become alcohol dependent, and players are forced to share equipment. Bobby insists he be the waterboy after seeing a keg of heavily polluted water that coach Klein had been offering his players. Klein, despite being impressed with a sample of Bobby's water, tells him he cannot hire anybody due to the team's financial issues, but Bobby agrees to work for free.

Retired CIA agent Travis Hunter (Steven Seagal) and rookie FBI agent Sean Mac (Matthew Davis) are assigned to work on the case and to track down the perpetrators. The Japanese branch of the CIA starts sniffing around under the auspices of Homeland Security.

Vietnam veteran William Lansing, a former CSA agent who works on a wildlife refuge in Northern Alaska, has been exchanging letters in a pen-pal relationship with Irena Morawska, a 13-year-old orphaned girl in Warsaw, Poland that he's helping out financially. When the letters suddenly stop coming. However, Lansing heads to Poland to figure out the reason.
