Biography

Charles Dennis embarked on his illustrious career at the tender age of eight, making his mark on the Canadian radio scene with a guest appearance on the popular series "Peter and the Dwarf". As he grew older, he continued to hone his craft, making his professional stage debut at the youthful age of 16 at the esteemed Red Barn Theatre.

By the time he turned 17, Charles had already achieved an impressive milestone, becoming Canada's youngest film and theater critic for the renowned Toronto Telegram. His academic pursuits were not neglected, as he went on to graduate with a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of Toronto.

Charles's foray into the world of film began at the age of 21, when he made his debut as a soldier in the critically acclaimed 1970 film "Patton". Over the years, he has written and published several novels, including "Shar-Li", "The Dealmakers", "Bonfire", "Stoned Cold Soldier", and "Given the Crime".

In addition to his work in literature, Charles has also made a significant impact on the world of theater. His plays, which include "Going On", "Significant Others", "SoHo Duo", and "Altman's Last Stand", have been met with critical acclaim and have contributed to his reputation as a talented and versatile writer.

In a testament to his collaborative spirit, Charles has also co-written plays with other notable figures in the industry. One such example is "After Goodnight", a play written in collaboration with the late Anthony Perkins.
