Biography

Stephen Koepp is a news writer who works on the journalism platform and conference series "From Day One" (of which he co-founded). He held editorial positions in magazines such as TIME and Newsweek. He graduated on the University of Wisconsin. A lifelong journalist, Koepp's insights and experience in the business granted the opportunity to write the screenplay for Ron Howard's The Paper (1994), co-written with his brother David Koepp, best known for the screenplays of box-office hits such as Jurassic Park (1993), Mission: Impossible (1996) and Spider-Man (2002).

The Paper (1994) story follows a day in the life of journalists, editors, and other personnel who work on the print media while dealing with pressures coming from following schedules, deadlines (both on work and also with their family) and the real meaning of integrity in journalism. Koepp also appears in the cast, briefly as a German correspondent who works in The Sentinel, a paper that rivals the one featured as the main paper in the movie.
