Biography |
"Well-known as a playwright, Suzanne Finlay has also worked extensively as both a writer and story editor for film and television. Her early career as an actress took her from Illinois to England in the 1950s, where she eventually came to work as Story Editor for MGM Films ("because," she says, "the money was better"). Later, she was an agent for the Curtis Brown Agency, where her clients included Noel Coward, Harold Pinter and Samuel Beckett.
"Returning to North America, she became a story editor for CBC-TV Drama in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver, spending nine years with the long-running series The Beachcombers, seen internationally in over 50 countries. Since then, she has adapted two of her stage plays, Monkeyshines and Gone to Glory, for film, while also story editing numerous other films in development and working as a script assessor for various funding agencies. She now lives in Mill Bay, B.C. where she writes full-time for film and theatre" (26 July 2001. qtd. http://www.singlelane.com/escript/emiritus.htm). |
