About Hilary

I am a playwright, screenwriter, poet, stand-up comic, director, comedy improviser, and actor. I received a degree in Creative Writing (poetry) from the University of Arizona and an MFA in Writing for Stage and Screen from the New Hampshire Institute of Art. My plays, Call My Dead Wife and HisStory are published through Next Stage Press. Petrified Forest is included in the Smith & Kraus anthology, Best 10-Minute Plays of 2022. A monologue from Martin's Treehouse is included in the Smith & Kraus anthology, Best Men's Monologues of 2022. And a monologue from their musical, Clothing, is included in the Smith & Kraus anthology, WE/US: Monologues for Gender Minority Characters. My play, Tighten Your Borscht Belt, was a semifinalist with the O’Neill Playwrights Conference. My plays have been produced throughout the country. I live in Los Angeles, CA where I teach playwriting and improv, and draw my inspiration and sense of humor from my four adult kids, a wacky orange tabby, and a Yorkie. I am a proud member of the Dramatists Guild and Honor Roll! an advocacy group of women+ playwrights over 40.

About the lesson

I can teach you how to write a full-length or one-act play and help with revisions and getting your work produced. I have worked with students of all ages with no writing experience to professionals who want to hone their craft.

Hilary really knows her craft! She’s a fantastic teacher! She helped me identify and fix holes in my plot and elevate my dialogue. She has a keen eye for subtext and helped me ensure every character has a distinct voice. I highly recommend her!
