Sean is a four-time Amazon #1 bestselling author and has written nine books including Monkey Morales and Insane Clown Posse: Unaccepted, Vol. I, both released in 2025. Sean's first foray into professional writing came rather late, as his first book was released when he was 45. As someone who steadfastly believes in the credo "you don't have to be only one thing," Sean has spent a lifetime in various disciplines in the arts. He was born in New Jersey in 1972 and grew up in the city of West New York, NJ — a diverse, urban area that became a hub for Cuban exiles in the 1970s. His interest in filmmaking and the arts was fostered quite young and in grade school he began making short films with very oversized video equipment. He would tie together two VCRs with A/V cable to create a crude editing system. In high school, he assembled a group of students with a similar fascination with film and continued making shorts, as he now had access to more sophisticated editing equipment at school. Academically, he went on to graduate from New Jersey City University with a degree in Media Arts. Sean began acting professionally just out of high school. His first motion picture and television credits included Philadelphia, Unsolved Mysteries, and Graduation Week. He also served as director of photography on the independent feature A Clown in Babylon. Around the same time, Sean began directing TV commercials for the discount brokerage house National Discount Brokers. ​In the late 1990s, Oliver began voice acting in films and TV shows, first appearing in the TV series Sex & the City, where he worked doing voice work for more than 4 seasons. Rather quickly, he became one of the most prominent ADR actors in New York's post production scene, having amassed more than 150 credits on major motion picture and TV productions. Oliver also continued on-camera appearances, showing up in Law & Order, Diary of a City Priest, Hack, and others. In a self-described attempt to keep from going artistically insane, Sean also rekindled a love with oil painting in the mid 2000s. As a youngster Oliver would paint beside his mother, who worked in oils herself. All throughout this time, he was also writing a handful of screenplays that have never found the light of day. Oliver also began teaching soon after leaving a 10-year stint working in presentations and graphics for the world of high finance on Wall Street. Throughout everything, Oliver was an on-again/off-again fan of the theatre of pro wrestling. in 2007, Sean and his friend Anthony began a production company that produced programming related to the days of classic pro wrestling. The company, Kayfabe Commentaries, soon became the standard bearer for this type of sports programming, with hundreds of full-length shows available in all forms of digital exhibition. Kayfabe Commentaries has worked with and spotlit the careers of wrestlers from Bruno Sammartino, to Rowdy Roddy Piper, to Bret Hart, and so many more greats. The story of that company's founding and the follies therein are the foundation for Sean's first published book, an Amazon #1 Bestseller, called Kayfabe. Sean authored two subsequent books about pro wrestling: Fathers' Blood and The Business of Kayfabe, in addition to three thrillers—Sophie's Journal, The Consultant, and Transfer. The success of his books has allowed Oliver a doorway into yet another medium. ​Sean then returned to non-fiction, co-authoring ECW creator Tod Gordon's autobiography, Tod is God, and a coffee table book chronicling rap group The Insane Clown Posse's journey in wrestling, titled Insane Clown Posse: Unaccepted, Vol. I. In 2019, Sean and Rick Morales, Jr. began chronicling the story of Rick's dad—Cuban exile turned CIA operative Ricardo "Monkey" Morales Navarrete. Sean and Rick's journey took them through decades of chaos in the world of international espionage. Dubbed “The Monkey” for his disruptive and unpredictable escapades, Morales grabbed headlines for decades as tales of his bombings, arrests, assassination attempts (both those he executed and those he suffered), and testimony constructed a real-life spy adventure unlike anything brought to page or screen. ​Monkey Morales blends James Bond, Rambo, and Scarface—a concoction of danger, politics, and family drama told in its entirety for the first time. In 2022, Sean launched the popular podcast Kliq This with two time WWE Hall of Fame wrestler Kevin Nash. Known for its irreverent and free-flowing style, the show quickly redefined the pro athlete podcast and transcended its category. Kevin and Sean cover everything and anything in the news, the world of pro sports, and, yes, wrestling. ​Sean has a couple of film projects in the works, as well as another true crime book set in Miami. He hopes to be finished with it in 2025 for publication the following year. But mostly, all he wants is a good night's sleep which he estimates has been eluding him since his teens. He lives in New Jersey with his wife and their two daughters.
