BiographyI earned my BS in Film from Emerson College, and an MFA in Dramatic Writing from NYU, where I won the 1989 Laurel Entertainment Screenwriting Award. In New York, I worked in the field of feature film development for fifteen years as a script reader, story editor, creative consultant and development executive. Among my clients were 20th Century Fox, Largo Entertainment, Hallmark, Focus Features and Miramax. For five of those years I worked for Dustin Hoffman's Punch Productions, where I was Vice-President of Development. For several years, I also taught a course in film script analysis at NYU, and in 2008, I wrote for Showtime's United States of Tara. (Episode #10: "Betrayal") I now live, write, and procrastinate in San Francisco, where I am hard at work on a new book, one that's a dramatic departure from my comic novels. I am single, petless, and happy. |
