About Kate Wright
Emmy Award winning writer-producer Kate Wright has over 25 years experience in film, television, and publishing, having worked with many of America's greatest creative talents, writers, playwrights, and directors, including the legendary Tennessee Williams, Jason Miller, Peter Bogdanovich, Reginald Rose, Jerome Kass, William Hanley, Robert Butler, Harry Sherman, John Sacret Young, and T.S. Cook.
Kate's book Screenwriting is Storytelling, published in 26 countries, catapulted her into prominence for its ground-breaking approach to storytelling that incorporates the "human mindset" as the story-centered truth receptor where the story's moral dilemma comes to life and transforms in conflict with opposing characters that function as opposing ideas in contest with one another. Behind every great story is battleground of characters waging a War of Ideas!
As a Co-founder of Interscope Communications, she developed and produced many award-winning television projects and feature films including Emmy-award winning Disney's A Mother's Courage: The Mary Thomas Story, critically-acclaimed Romero about Archbishop Oscar Romero who was assassinated while celebrating Mass during the Salvadorean Civil War, John Hersey's The Wall, Dan Kurzman's Day of the Bomb, The Soong Sisters, American Geisha, The Father Clements Story, Stillwatch, Cocktail, Three Men and a Baby and Hollywood Priest: The Story of Fr. Bud Kieser, among many others. Concurrently, Kate taught screenwriting at UCLA's internationally-acclaimed writer's program, and subsequently co-founded Five Continents Television, the first American-Chinese television network, acquiring a first-hand-realpolitik command of 21st Century issues and challenges plaguing America & The West. Kate's current film projects include: The Coachman, the epic story on the life of "Peacemaker of America" St. Katharine Drexel of Philadelphia, who, as missionary-heiress, transformed the face of America peacefully from within, by serving America's poorest and most oppressed, our displaced native Americans and children of newly freed slaves; Billy, a major motion picture screenplay/stageplay based on biographer Diane Wood Middlebrook's book Suits Me, A Life of Billy Tipton; and Matteo Ricci, a feature film on the heroic life of 17th Century Jesuit Missionary Priest, Matteo Ricci, S.J. who, as the founding Jesuit Superior General of the China Mission, opened China to The West by invitation of Wanli Emperor, the 14th emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
In addition to her career in film and television, Ms. Wright worked in the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate, after earning degrees from Georgetown University School of Foreign Service and Sorbonne University in Paris, France. She has also published articles for American Thinker and Real Clear Politics, and written and produced numerous non-profit live events, most notably Georgetown, Then and Now: Georgetown University's Bicentennial Celebration hosted by then-Disney CEO Michael D. Eisner, featuring then-Pope John Paul II and President William Jefferson Clinton, which was televised live from U.S. Constitution Hall. Kate has also presented conceptual modeling and white papers for think tanks and corporate clients.
