Bobby Peretti

Founder

Wheelhouse Films combines three of Bobby's favorite things: cinema, teaching, and autumn on Cape Cod. So he's pretty thrilled about it. 

Bobby studied Writing and Film at Johns Hopkins University, where he wrote and directed his first short film, The Cyclist.  He co-wrote another short, The Reading, and has several feature scripts in various stages of development. Before founding Wheelhouse, he worked as a reader, a director's assistant, a script doctor, and a writer for several NYC-based independent production companies, as well as Coordinator for the Directors' Collective NYC workshop.
