During his time at UVA he received the departmental award for outstanding teaching in his work with undergraduates. Evans received a bachelor's degree with honors in journalism and political science from Virginia Commonwealth University. His journalism focuses on business & finance, international stock markets and the myriad, endlessly creative schemes people concoct to multiply their coin. His business reporting appears regularly on Yahoo Finance, MSN Money, Morningstar, Benzinga and other market facing sites. As a movie writer and film historian, Evans has published more than 6,500 detailed reviews of motion pictures produced in virtually every country with a film industry. An international readership follows his website celebrating classic, obscure and contemporary cinema, as well as film history. Evans' writing and research on world cinema focus on a richer appreciation of life as viewed through the prism of different cultures that use film as a medium for artistic expression. Google has indexed every post on his film blog, and Evans' work is widely referenced in other major search engines including Yahoo and Bing. His new screenplay, "Monet for Nothing," centers on an international art heist by an American expatriate couple on the lam in Paris — running from Interpol, the mafia and a cabal of obnoxious, oddball in-laws.
