Jim was born March 4, 1970 and grew up on Cape Cod, MA. He received a BFA degree in Creative Writing and Photography at Emerson College in Boston.
Jim co-wrote Todd Verow's controversial debut feature film Frisk (Sundance, Berlin, and Toronto 1996) It starred Craig Chester and Parker Posey.
After Frisk, Dwyer and Verow formed one of the first digital video motion picture companies, Bangor Films. They have been profiled on CBS' 48 Hours and in the pages of Time Magazine and Filmmaker Magazine.
Notable low-budget, award-winning movies include Little Shots of Happiness and Shucking the Curve. Five of the films that Jim has produced or co-wrote have premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival.
Once & Future Queen, which premiered at the 53rd Locarno International Film Festival featured Jim's original music for the first time.
Bangor Films are available on DVD everywhere.
Jim's articles and photography have appeared in Filmmaker magazine, Insound, Ifilm, the New York Times, Screen and Variety.
He published his first novel, The Boy With The Sun In His Eyes in 2005. The comedy tale of a deadly 80's giallo movie star and her innocent boy Friday is a pseudo-biography that mixes high camp and intellectual dribblings into a kind of pink existentialism.
Bangor Films shot The Boy With The Sun In His Eyes on location in Europe in 2007. It world-premiered at NewFest, the New York LGBT Film Festival 2009 and then screened at the Tel Aviv Film Festival, MixMexico, the 2009 Chicago Underground Film Festival, Reeling Fest in Chicago, the MixBrasil Festival in Sao Paolo and the Out on Film Festival in Atlanta. It was released on DVD in France by Optimale and will be released on DVD in the US on Waterbearer Films, 12/1/09.
Jim has begun to write his next novel, For Same or Better and just finished a screenplay for a film set in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He will make his directorial debut in 2011 with Quiet Stars.
