Rex Shannon (b. 1995) began his artistic career as a fiction writer and literary scholar. His first three creative productions were a short story called "Come Up Here" published in Alaska Quarterly Review, an academic article on James Joyce's "Ulysses" published in Joyce Studies Annual, and an internet novel published on web3. Since 2023, Rex has turned his narrative productions to film. "European Man...American Beach" is his first narrative short: a drama/comedy about a brawl between a naked European and an American who's deeply offended by the European's nudity.
