On January 28th, we’ll review new screenwriter, Joan Kelley’s feature Liza Herself.
LOGLINE:
A desperate young woman takes control of her empty life when she joins the Army where she confronts her own insecurities on the battlefield.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Joan Kelley is a recovering attorney, retired Navy veteran, and screenwriter who co-published a joint military memoir, “The Siren’s Call and Second Chances” with her husband in 2016, (Amazon, Createspace). She was a consultant on NETFLIX’s recently released docu-series, Medal of Honor.
It was on location at a movie ranch north of LA that she was bitten by the film bug. The prognosis was good and treatment involved securing a screenwriting certificate from Emerson College resulting in three screenplays of which Liza Herself is one and which won a Grand Prize 2018 in the Rhode Island International Screenplay Competition.
Joan is married with four grown children.
