About Suzanne

I am the former owner of the Applause Screenwriting Competition. I created the contest, selected the judges (including lead judge Lew Hunter, UCLA screenwriting professor emeritus), and provided cash and product prizes for the top 3 prize winners. I am now writing/marketing my own screenplays.

My screenplay Capital Women was selected for production in the A Place Called Sacramento Contest. I produced and directed it as a short film which was shown at the Crest Theater in Sacramento.

I hold an MBA from California Southern University, and a BA in English from Kalamazoo College (in Michigan) with a writing and literature emphasis. I was a winner of the Mademoiselle Magazine Fiction Competition. My poetry was published in the Yearbook of Modern Poetry.
