Legend of Tarzan Brown

A Native American Hero

Screenplay, not yet produced

Ellison Myers "Tarzan" Brown was a two time Boston Marathon winner (competing in Boston nine times between 1934 to 1946) and participant in the 1936 Berlin Olympic Games in the marathon. He was a Narragansett Indian runner from Rhode Island whose tribal name was Deerfoot and David Gary Wilson, from Canada, has written a screenplay based on his remarkable and true story of this amazing athlete. Visit Wilson’s Website to read the screenplay (it is 128 pages in PDF format) and see photos of "Tarzan" running. Like any writing, until it is produced, it is a work in progress and feedback is welcome. The next step is for a producer and director to step up and work with this writer to make the full motion picture experience a reality as this story is deserving to be told...and remembered.
