Stories for a better world

Author, Actress, Producer

Anthea T. Piscarik

Welcome to my website! hope you learn a little about me and my passion for writing! Here’s the relatively short version!!

School stuff: 

  • University of Delaware, with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in English and Minor in Theatre, concentration in Film Theory, and wrote two screenplays for senior thesis. I graduated magna cum laude with a Degree of Distinction.
  • Advanced Screenwriting classes at the University of Penn, and, in 1999, participated in the inaugural Act One: Writing for Hollywood program in Los Angeles.

Treading the Boards: I resumed acting studies at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, the oldest conservatory in the US,  and completed courses in voice, movement, and stage performance.

Back to Writing:  “Key Witness”  published in two literary magazines and  two-time finalist in America’s Best contest sponsored by the Writer’s Foundation in the short story category. Established a professional writing career as a creative writer and news reporter, both free lance and as staff for a Catholic weekly paper.

  • Wrote three one-act plays performed in readers’ theatre productions, and one fully produced.
  • Currently, I’m marketing five screenplays, two formerly optioned.
  • “Unearthing Christmas,’ my first novel, started with a dream! “The Years In Between,” the second novel continues the storyline. Three more novels are in the works under the series “The Miriam Chronicles.”
  • Wrote and directed two highly successful Murder Mystery plays for the State of Delaware’s Parks & Recreation Division.

Other Stuff: I’m an identical twin, a club I was born into!  As a producer, I’m finalizing a documentary about a blind couple raising their own sighted twins.
