He is best known for his work on the 1986 film River’s Edge. In 1994, he was a member of the Sundance Film Festival’s dramatic jury. For The Waterdance, he won Independent Spirit Awards for Best First Feature and Best Screenplay.

He fell 20 feet into a tiny pool in 1984 while hiking with some buddies while still a film student after slipping on a rock.
