Hurricane in the Rose Garden (2009)
There's one central driving force that turned Kamafi into a writer -- poverty. He was born the third son to a single mom with four ill-mannered children, and raised in the rough Kingshighway neighborhood of St. Louis, MO. But that poverty forced him to have a vivid imagination which he employed by writing and illustrating (crudely) a series of comic books in order to pay for lunch.

The central themes of his work are Identity and Redemption and his heavily researched scripts tend to favor the Thriller, Sci-Fi, and Action genres. This led award-winning Director Devorah Rubenstein, to make him her Director of Development for Noble House.

Although Kamafi has been exposed to every level of production, his heart is forever linked with the pen. He has written well over fifteen features, five tv shows, and numerous shorts and comic books. He's also done script coverage analysis for Bill Duke Productions, The Oxygen Network, Carsey-Werner, and Universal. He uses a trademark 6 Act format to write scripts and credits it with his ability to turn a script around very quickly.
