- Catherine Vouvray | IWC List
< Back Catherine Vouvray cathvouvray@gmail.com http://commelevin.com Coverfly Catherine Vouvray grew up gay in God’s country – the bible belt South – fearing for her life at home with mentally ill parents and out in the rural world, where those in the LGBTQIA+ community were killed for sport. Education saved her life, but writing saved her soul. Her work is focused on empathy, relationships, mental health, and finding the funny in dark times. A published short story writer and produced writer/director, Vouvray’s mission is to add to queer cinema while often placing older (gasp!) women at the epicenter of stories ranging from comedy to drama, to rom-com, to family, and finally, to animation. Oh, and yes, she also writes straight stuff for the youth. Vouvray is in post-production on her first independent feature film, All Wounds , which apparently needs a new title because it isn't a horror. Her influences include Waller-Bridges, Sciamma, Gaudagnino, and Manuel-Miranda. When not indulging in filmmaking, Vouvray writes novels, including The Months of Payne. Catherine is currently a proud fellow of the Michener Center for Writers.

- Jude Roth | IWC List
< Back Jude Roth 1juderoth@gmail.com 310.621.1697 http://www.juderoth.com After spending time at the Berkshire County jail where her mother was Deputy Sheriff, tween Jude started a diary with this entry: “Last night I had my first dance (to Jingle Bell Rock) with a boy, an inmate at the jail’s Christmas party. His name is Smitty, he starts fires, and mom says he escaped.” Instead of joining the hunt for him (or hiding), Jude began exorcising her bemusement and bewilderment at life by writing personal, character-driven stories often set against big-world backdrops. Jude's a graduate of NYU Tisch School of the Arts and is an award-winning TV/feature drama writer. As an indie filmmaker, she wrote and EP’d a scripted drama about an undocumented day laborer that PBS and Latino Public Broadcasting acquired (twice). She's also won “Best Screenplay” at La Femme Int'l Film Festival and has had TV pilots featured on The Black List, The Black List Disability List, and WeForShe WriteHer List, the latter annually featuring 20 unproduced pilots selected from hundreds of nominations from industry executives and creatives. She's one of only 6 writers chosen for the 2019 Black List-Women in Film Episodic Lab, was a finalist for the HUMANITAS New Voices in TV award, and is a two-time semifinalist for the Sundance Episodic Lab. Her scripts have advanced in contests such as Austin Film Festival (semifinalist), Writers Lab supported by Meryl Streep (semifinalist), PAGE (top 10), Writers Network/Fade In (8 quarterfinalist projects in one year), Slamdance (top 25), and Cinestory (semifinalist). Fate also once thrust her into working in TV development at Skydance Media where she got to partake in how the proverbial sausage is made - and it was amazing (thanks, Fate!): The team there loves writers and it rocked. To relax, Jude eats pizza all over LA, practices her baseball pitching skills (just in case she gets called up by the Red Sox or Dodgers one day), pets every dog she can, and worships at the altar of "Niles" in FRASIER reruns.

- Lisanne Sartor | IWC List
< Back Lisanne Sartor lisanne.sartor@me.com http://lisannesartor.com Lisanne Sartor gained early notoriety for: 1) Calling her fourth-grade teacher a female chauvinist for not letting girls play kickball (a clear outrage). 2) Teaching sex-ed seminars to her fifth-grade cohorts using Judy Blum’s FOREVER (how proud were her parents? Surprisingly, not very). 3) Calling her eighth-grade teacher a bitch for unfairly penalizing another student (While her principal shared her opinion, he told her she should keep such opinions to herself. Lesson not learned). Sartor’s outspoken nature led her to become a Los Angeles DGA assistant director (film and TV set middle management). After seven years, she had a bad back, nerve damage in her feet, and a Biblical appreciation for caffeine. She quit to write and direct. She has a UCLA Screenwriting MFA and has participated in such prestigious residencies and programs as Yaddo, Hedgebrook, Storyknife, the AFI Directing Workshop for Women, and the WGA Feature Writers Access Program.

Having fled from the Salvadorian War at the age of three, Daniel’s take on the Latinx point-of-view is rooted in trauma yet explored through humor. At the core of his writing—whether it be as an overly judgmental spectator of his ancestors or as an ethnically put-upon participant—is Daniel’s cautionary experiences in the never-ending assimilation process, a discipline that Daniel refers to as “A Rights of ‘Otherness’ Passage.” Daniel is also a proudly maladjusted homosexual, which comes with its own otherness stories.
