About Kirk LaMar
High-Stakes Thrillers. Uncompromising Authenticity.
The Tech Pioneer & Entrepreneur Long before AI and digital manipulation became standard, Kirk LaMar was pioneering the space. In 1986, Kirk founded New Image Industries, utilizing early PCs and graphic boards to digitally superimpose hairstyles and makeovers onto live video images of clients. His visionary tech disrupted the beauty and architectural industries, leading to a massive $14.5 million IPO on the NASDAQ. Kirk's technology and personal story were featured globally, including coverage in The New York Times, Glamour, WWD, Vogue, and the Daily News, where he digitally redesigned the looks of icons like Oprah Winfrey, David Letterman, George Bush and Ted Koppel.
The Hollywood Insider & Psychological Authority, Kirk's understanding of alpha personalities, massive wealth, and dangerous leverage isn't researched; it's lived. He came up in the 1970s Beverly Hills elite scene as a hairdresser working with icons like Farrah Fawcett and Raquel Welch. Mentored by Hollywood legend Jon Peters and having spent time operating inside Larry Flynt's mansion cutting his wife's hair, Kirk has looked the world's most powerful—and volatile—people in the eye.
Beyond the boardroom and the Hollywood elite, Kirk is a UCSD-educated, certified mental health counselor who spent several years running a mental health practice inside an urgent care center. This clinical frontline background—navigating trauma, severe crisis management, and the biological drivers of human behavior—provides the terrifyingly authentic psychological warfare that fuels his characters.
The Modern AI-Hybrid Author True to his roots as a technological early-adopter, Kirk is transparent about his process: he is a hybrid creator. He leverages state-of-the-art AI platforms as developmental sounding boards to accelerate his writing, structuring, and world-building, proving once again that he is decades ahead of the curve in utilizing tech to disrupt traditional media industries.
