| Introduction | I’m an active feature film producer and partner in the independent production company Either/Or Films (www.eitherorfilms.com), which produced the award-winning features The Sensation of Sight (www.thesensationofsight.com) starring Academy Award Best Actor nominee David Strathairn, and Only Daughter (www.onlydaughterfilm.com). I’m also the Program Director of the low-residency MFA in Writing for Stage and Screen being offered by the New Hampshire Institute of Art (mfa.nhia.edu/writing-for-stage-and-screen). I'm also a writer who has written many plays and screenplays, including Sister Calling My Name (winner of the National Play Award), and the author of the best-selling book The Playwright’s Process. I’ve spent over three decades as a dramaturg, teacher, and consultant working with hundreds of emerging and established writers in theatre and film. I hold a Ph.D in dramatic literature, taught scriptwriting as Playwright-In-Residence for many years at Drew University, founded the Playwrights Theatre of New Jersey, a professional theatre currently in its 25th year dedicated to the development of new plays, and offer a script consulting service (www.buzzmclaughlinscripts.com). |
