Richard Hack is an American author and journalist who wrote 'Hughes: The Private Diaries, Memos and Letters' (2001), a biography of Howard Hughes that Castle Rock optioned for Christopher Nolan to adapt.
Hack's Hughes biography provided the material for Nolan's unproduced biopic project — a Howard Hughes story that would have been Nolan's first major studio commission and his earliest engagement with the theme of obsessive genius.
