Robbie Ribspreader was born on August 31, 1977 in Detroit City. His
father was a one-armed grist mill worker and his mother was what was
known as a chuck wagon stewardess. Originally planning to become a
lawyer, his plans changed after becoming ensconced in the world of
underground cinema. In 1995, at the age of eighteen, he married
Rosalita Giacomanco-Vasquez Ortiz, a showgirl at an infamous New
Orleans burlesque theater. One year later, she died in what was
described in newspapers to be "an industrial accident." Ribspreader
slipped into seclusion for some time afterward, only to return to the
movie scene full-force with his screenplay for the film "Purple Glow,"
which went on to win Best Sc-Fi at the 2005 Wreck-Beach Film Festival.
To date, he has written some of the most poignant B-movie screenplays,
creating a niche for his work and a name throughout the film industry.
He currently lives in Germany.
