ROY MACGREGOR, the media inductee into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2012, has been described by the Washington Post as "the closest thing there is to a poet laureate of Canadian hockey." He is the author of the internationally successful Screech Owls hockey mystery series for young readers, which has sold more than two million copies and is published in French, Chinese, Swedish, Finnish, and Czech. The most successful hockey series in history-second only to Anne of Green Gables as a book series for young readers-it was a live-action hit on YTV.
MacGregor has twice won the ACTRA Award for best television screenwriting.
