Cecile Callan’s poetry and fiction appear in Cleaver Magazine, Quartz Literary, The Fish Anthology, and Louisiana Literature. The award-winning L.A. production of her controversial play about abortion, Angels Twice Descending, saw the fall of Roe v Wade thirty years before it happened. In a former life, she was an alien with four nostrils, a dumb bank robber, and a sexy geologist among other professions, including the oldest. Insomniacs know her from reruns. Cecile Callan lives in the Hudson Valley where she is at work on a novel.
My screenplay 'Angels Twice Descending' is based on my award-winning play of the same name which foresaw the fall of Roe v Wade thirty years ago. When reality caught up I was approached to adapt the play into a screenplay which is what I'm submitting here.
