About Keren
Raised in New England amidst a backdrop of mob ties and Stephen King-worthy tragic losses, Keren Green channels her dark past into stories about resilient characters clawing toward redemption. Whether crafting post-apocalyptic wastelands or delving into identity crises, she brings an unflinching and authentic voice to her worlds as characters battle through their own personal hells.
A dual US/Canadian citizen, Keren currently splits her time between Los Angeles and Auckland. She was recently staffed in the Sky TV and Dark Doris Productions development room for the spy thriller SOFT TARGET. She has been in development rooms for several series such as THE LADS, LOVE & GASLIGHT, WILD LUPINS, and SOMETHING-NOTHING-EVERYTHING. Additionally, since 2021, Keren has worked as a Project Assessor for NZ On Air, the country's television funding body.
In the US, Keren developed the sci-fi feature ARK and TV series PROGENY Z with The Gillen Group (Fried Green Tomatoes, The Man in the White Van). In 2020, she was tapped to create and develop ten episodes in a mini-room for the short-form series GHOSTED, intended for Quibi through Zaza Productions, which secured her WGAW membership shortly before Quibi's demise. Her award-winning short films HOLDING SOUTH and DEFENSE+4 have screened at festivals worldwide, garnering Best Screenplay and Best Director honors.
An MFA graduate in Creative Writing for Entertainment from Full Sail University and alumna of UCLA's Professional Program in TV Writing, Keren pays it forward by teaching screenwriting between projects. But, ultimately, it’s her husband, children and two dogs that complete her.
