ABOUT THE GUEST:

 Lesley Fera is a Native Californian whose creative work spans several mediums, including theatre, television, and film. Her passion for screenwriting blossomed during her three-decade acting career, where she appeared in some of television’s biggest hits—including PRETTY LITTLE LIARS, 24, and SOUTHLAND.

Her writing has been recognized by Script Pipeline, Final Draft’s Big Break, Roadmap Writers, TrackingB, ScreenCraft, PAGE, and Stowe Story Labs. Fera has advanced in two network fellowships: the NBC/Universal Launch TV Writers Program (Semifinalist) and the Warner Bros. TV Workshop (Finalist). She has had development meetings with notable companies, including Thunder Road Pictures, Eat the Cat, Weed Road Pictures, Echo Lake Entertainment, MarVista, and FOX Entertainment.
