History
Born in Paris, he grew up with American culture, watching films by his favorite directors, Steven Spielberg, Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick, Frank Capra, Sergio Leone. The films of French comedian Louis de Funès led to Monro starting acting at age 9 before making his first films at 13. After graduating from French Film School ESRA, in 1997, he attended Jack Waltzer's masterclass for a few years in Paris and New York.
From 1999, Monro has written, produced, performed and directed several professional short films, most of which toured international film festivals such as Toronto, Palm Beach, Bolzano and South Korea.[citation needed] Monro has worked as a production manager for numerous commercials and music videos, including Ayọ and Sepultura.[citation needed]
Monro has written about Calamity Jane: he created an exhibit about her in Paris in 2010,[1] and directed a docudrama for European broadcaster Arte.[2][3] He purchased Calamity Jane's diary and letters in 2004, which led to his projects.[citation needed]
