About
Julie Bush. I write T.V. And novels. And features.
I’m currently writing a freelance episode of “Sons of Anarchy.”
I used to write for a comedy called “The Dish”.
I went to Princeton. Toni Morrison was my thesis advisor, and I was her only student that year. My other creative writing teachers included Joyce Carol Oates and Russell Banks.
My first novel is about a girl selling black market prescription drugs to pay her way through Princeton — while writing her senior thesis on HENRY IV and TWELFTH NIGHT. The plot subtly weaves together and reenacts the plays, evoking her thesis. It’s vital and urgent and raw and literary, and I’m really proud of it.
Now I write one-hour drama pilots. At the moment, I also have a sitcom. Comedy or drama, my scripts are heartfelt and structurally resonant.
I’m also writing my second novel, for joy, love of literary fiction and to keep my mind limber, fresh and free.
I’m from rural Georgia. I live near LACMA right in the center of Los Angeles.
