Episode description

With over 40 years of experience in theater, film, television, and prose, Bart’s career began in theater, where he has had eight plays produced around the world. The film rights to his play, RELAY, were bought by Warner Bros., leading him into screenwriting. He has had two feature films and 14 movies for television produced, including the BRIDE trilogy for CBS, LOVE AND SUNSHINE for Hallmark, and most recent TERRY MCMILLAN PRESENTS: FOREVER, starring Taye Diggs and Meagan Good, for Lifetime which Bart was nominated for a 2025 best screenplay for a motion picture in streaming or television by the WGA. Bart has also written for four television series, including DIRT, starring Courtney Cox. 


Bart has written ten novels including HONEYMOON WITH HARRY, the movie rights bought by New Line Cinema. 


Bart has a movie shooting this spring - still untitled - starring Taye Diggs and Lesley Anne Brandt, and it will also be executive produced by Terry McMillan, under her banner. The film will premiere in June  on the Lifetime Network.
