Writer Statement

I am honored to adapt Meredith Ritchie's rich historical fiction novel, Poster Girls. Adapting this novel was an incredible journey. This is a beautiful story about a diverse group of women, a new and exciting take on the iconic Rosie the Riveter era. These women are strong, capable and powerful role models who fight adversity, racism and sexism at every turn.
