Mr. Roman is the creator, president, and creative power behind Roman Pictures, a Delaware-based television and motion picture production company, and the former Zio Productions Inc., which produced talent showcases and TV advertisements as early as 1985. His filmmaking career spans over four decades, with many multi-award-winning features, short films, and popular entertainment-based enterprises.

Showing a budding interest in filmmaking even at an early age, at 18, he came to America with his wife and infant son to make his own life. He spoke very little English but learned quickly by listening to those around him and through informal lessons from a still lifelong friend, Colonel Ben Tarnell. After successfully creating his landscaping business, he returned to his calling for filmmaking. He began producing talent shows and TV commercials for local merchants.
His first movie short in 1989 was "Taking Care of Business." After receiving positive feedback on the finished product, he invested in a professional-grade camera and sound equipment. He entered the independent feature film circuit, a venture unheard of outside the big Hollywood productions, making him a pioneer for independent filmmaking.
 Mr. Roman's first feature-length production, "Mismatch," premiered at the Kennedy Center's American Film Institute (AFI) Theater in 1991. More recently won an Award of Merit at The Accolade Television Awards as a classic film.
 "Lady Law," a one-hour television pilot, also premiered at the AFI in June 1994. These two productions featured over 370 actors and were enthusiastically received by film distributors at the American Film Market and Cannes Festival.

Mr. Roman's current film projects, "Signals" (winner of "Best Action Feature Film" at an established New York film festival) and its follow-up sequel "Signals 2," as well as the sci-fi drama "Time Refugees," are now under non-exclusive contract with ITN Distribution. ITN presented "Signals" at the AFM and Cannes Festivals and signed for Roman Pictures to have "Signals" distributed in December 2008.
Shoreline Entertainment, a major international distributor for genre feature films, has contacted Roman Pictures regarding distribution rights for "Signals 2" and "Second Time Around," a supernatural family court drama.

His multi-award-winning suspense/thriller/drama TV series, "Dissensions," recently won the Silver Remi Award at the prestigious 50th annual WorldFest Houston Film Festival, founded in April 1968 as the world's oldest Independent Film & Video Festival.
Besides these features and short films, he has also formed his current Entertainment News Network, WRPN.TV. (Worldwide Roman Pictures Network), which interncasts news reports from Los Angeles celebrity galas and festivals, interviewing red-carpet guests and capturing a glimpse of the Hollywood scene. WRPN also reports on news related to their films and other films being produced in the Washington D.C./MD/VA and DE area, with a "Free" video section  for filmmakers winning awards at his film festivals.
He is the founder and CEO of thirteen reputable film festivals, along with his long-term partners, Sharon Carpenter-Rose and his wife, Judith Roman:
