William Dickerson is a filmmaker, author, musician, and professor whose work has been recognized worldwide. His debut feature film "Detour," which he wrote and directed, was hailed as an "Underground Hit" by The Village Voice, an "emotional and psychological roller-coaster ride" by The Examiner, and nothing short of "authentic" by The New York Times. His first book, "No Alternative," was declared, "a sympathetic coming-of-age story deeply embedded in '90s music" by Kirkus Reviews. His book on filmmaking, "DETOUR: Hollywood: How To Direct a Microbudget Film (or any film, for that matter)," was called "candidly practical, thoroughly 'user friendly,' and an essential instruction guide–especially for independent filmmakers working on shoestring budgets" by Midwest Book Review. His writing has been published by Indiewire, MovieMaker Magazine, Filmmaker Magazine, The Hollywood Reporter’s The Wrap, Script Magazine, The Talkhouse, and Save The Cat! He adapted and directed the film version of "No Alternative," starring Kathryn Erbe and Harry Hamlin, which was released worldwide through Gravitas Ventures. The Los Angeles Times hailed the movie as "a remarkably assured and deeply felt grunge-era coming-of-age picture," and Film Threat called it "a rare indie gem that delivers solidly on all fronts with no missteps."
