Biography

James Tamburino is an Author, Screenwriter, Producer and Creative Executive based out of Long Island, NY.

First and foremost a writer, and a graduate of Towson University with a degree in Creative Writing and English, Tamburino's most recent project, The Call: The David Ayres Story, marks his breakout feature and arrival in the prestige biopic arena. Some of his other most recent work-for-hire projects includes a slate of original scripted content for various film and television producers, such as writing and co-producing John A. Gotti's WITSEC Mafia docu-series, working as an Assistant Writer to legendary Director, John McTiernan on a feature film screenplay, and crafting the treatment for a Kurt Angle biopic. Tamburino also partnered with former National Hockey League All-Star, Bobby Ryan, to write his inspirational true story of triumph into a memoir, screenplay and/or series. Additionally, in 2020, he was hired by LA Lakers President, Jeanie Buss, to co-write a feature film/TV series treatment based on the true story of Roller Hockey International - the first ever professional roller hockey league.

Tamburino's previous work and on-screen credits during the early stages of his break into the industry span lower budget features and include co-writing and co-producing the horror-thriller The Curse of the Clown Motel, starring Tobin Bell, along with Co-Producer and Creative Executive roles on a range of film and television productions. Grateful for his years of experience as an Assistant to Producer, Michael Tadross Jr, while pursuing a writing career, Tamburino was given the opportunity to then become a Creative Executive for Tadross Media Group, overlooking various submitted scripts and project concepts, while providing coverage and assisting with several productions. Operating alongside Tadross on the day-to-day within the film and media company, amongst several other businesses, became a full-time education which has ultimately led to Tamburino's first Screenwriting and Producing roles as well.

Dating back to 2010, the writing career began when Tamburino had the opportunity to write a High School Lacrosse themed screenplay, Senior Year, which was then produced into a documentary DVD in 2011. In 2012, he was hired by TMG to write a feature length screenplay, Mermaid Avenue, an action-drama biopic based on tattoo industry legend, Crazy Philadelphia Eddie.

Tamburino has several additional projects in various stages of pitch, option, and development. He is currently unrepresented.
