Sander Gusinow.
Screenwriter, Journalist, Small Dog Enthusiast
After finishing my playwriting MFA at Columbia University studying under Charles Mee and Richard Greenberg (and disappearing in the Andes to throw off the debt collectors) I honed my theatrical dazzle writing plays, web series, and the occasional think piece for the Theatre Development Fund.
In my career as a journalist, writing for TDF Stages, One Green Planet, and Oregon Business Magazine, I explore our ever-shifting society through the stores of people on the front lines of change. I cover cyber crime, the international supply chain, climate change adaption, gender equality, and diversity, equity and inclusion.
I currently reside in Portland with my wife Amy and our fearless Chihuahua Sadie.
This is Sadie
She's my ferocious, fiery angel.
I'm obsessed.
