Chatting with award winning TV writer & producer, Georgia Jeffries

Contributing a chapter on Susan Harris

July 9-11 Co-writer Mary B. Trevor and I presented at the 10th Biennial Conference on Applied Legal Storytelling at the University of Michigan Law School in Ann Arbor.


It was a pleasure to meet law professors who teach budding lawyers how to engage and persuade a judge or jury. I met public defenders who help their tell their stories, in pursuit of  justice.

Chatting with award winning TV writer & producer, Georgia Jeffries

July's episode is a wide ranging chat with award  winning TV writer and  producer, Georgia  Jeffries. I'm a huge fan of  her work on Cagney &  Lacey, China Beach and  Sisters. All three series  featured strong women  characters, fresh  dialogue and compelling  stories - that's why I love  them!  Click image to learn more about Georgia & her 2024 historical fiction  book, The Younger Girl.  


We discuss Georgia's years of teaching at USC’s School of Cinematic Arts and  her recent book. The Younger Girl (2024) is based on a 1930’s true crime and  its tragic aftermath
