Robert Flowers
Born in Mexico but raised in Phoenix, AZ, Robert is the son of a paraplegic Vietnam veteran from the East Coast and a school teacher from central Mexico. He discovered his passion for film and TV while making a commercial for a local radio station while studying abroad in the Netherlands.
Like himself, Robert’s stories are rooted in underdog characters straddling two different worlds, struggling to find their place, who must face off against institutional corruption — often through the lens of mentor/parent and mentee/child relationships, with a genre bent.
His sports thriller Welcome to Stillwater — about a new hockey coach who discovers a scandal involving the program and his predecessor — won Best Thriller Pilot at The Big Apple Film Festival and the ISA Fast Track Fellowship, which also led to him becoming a Black List-recommended writer. In 2022, Robert became a USA Today Bestselling author for a novella written under a pen name.
As a director, his gritty sci-fi thriller short film Honor’s Half-Life won Best Thriller/Suspense at the 2025 Chandler International Film Festival and was picked up for distribution on the sci-fi channel DUST on YouTube.
When he’s not writing or making movies, Robert films operating room surgeries and procedures all over the U.S. and Canada, a gig he’s had since college, culminating in an Emmy Award-winning production, The Latest Procedure, showcasing a radical new hip replacement surgery. But he has never fainted at the sight of blood — except his own.
Actress & stunt performer, known for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Rebel Moon.
