The Storytellers Behind the Wheel

Greg Martin

Greg Martin

Producer/Author

Greg Martin, author of the Dispatch Me Home series, is no stranger to the world of trucking. He began his career as a swamper for Mayflower Lines in Indio, California and later, became a motor transport officer in the US Marine Corps, and spent some time working with a fleet of trucks in waste management. This movie project has long been Greg’s passion. “What’s important,” he says, “is to spotlight the industry in a good light and present a positive stereotype. There are a lot of career opportunities in trucking for hard-working men and women, it’s an opportunity to become your own person.” Martin knows he has something good here that could go in many directions. It could spawn a truck radio serial, a book, or even a compilation CD of the great music he wants to include. But most importantly, he believes the timing for the film could not be better. “Nostalgia for a kinder, gentler time has been proven to have therapeutic benefits in today’s often stress-filled times. If anything, the Covid-19 lockdown has made us appreciate the great outdoors and the relationships we have with family and friends. Dispatch Me Home is a portrait of one man’s life in the trucking industry, an occupation that is proving more vital as retail sales shift to online marketplaces. It’s time to honor those folks.”
