For several years I wrote original scripts for ABC After School Specials. I love writing scripts. It was so interesting to watch actors become the characters I had made up. Here are some of the titles:

  • TATTLE: WHEN TO TELL ON A FRIEND. ABC After School Special - Emmy Nomination: Script. Bronze Apple Award. Cine Gold Eagle.
  • SUPERMOM'S DAUGHTER. ABC After School Special - Emmy Nomination. AWRT Commendation. Mentor Award. NAWW Award.
  • TEEN FATHER. ABC After School Special - Emmy Nomination. Humanitas Finalist. National Psychological Association Award for Excellence in the Media. Nancy Susan Reynolds Award.
  • DON'T TOUCH. ABC After School Special - Emmy Nomination. Humanitas Finalist. Humanitarian Award.
  • I WANT TO GO HOME. ABC After School Special - Emmy Nomination. WGA Nomination: Outstanding Children's TV Script.

I also wrote three original scripts for The Baby-sitters Club which were aired HBO and distributed as videotapes. Here's a list of those titles:

  • Jessie and the Mystery of the Stolen Secrets
  • Claudia and the Mystery of the Secret Passage
  • Stacy Takes a Stand - Cable Ace Award Finalist
