Lynne Sherbondy

Lynne grew up in Las Vegas amidst mobsters, showgirls, and nuclear testing. But that's for another bio.

As a screenwriter who's recently pivoted to prose, she's new to narrative fiction, but not new to storytelling. Her film scripts and plays have earned numerous awards, and her latest book of poetry, All the world collected, was published by Finishing Line Press in 2024. Her latest flash piece, Combustion, is featured in The Plentitudes Quarterly Literary Journal, Spring 2026 issue. Lynne’s currently at work on a novel.

As a writer/producer, she's won a CINE Golden Eagle for her work on the NYSE visitors center film, It All Starts Here — at one point, the fourth largest tourist attraction in NYC — and has three Telly Awards. Additionally, Lynne has served as a Story Analyst for Academy Award-winning director, Jonathan Demme, and as an Associate Producer/Story Editor for Vanguard Films, where she created and developed an incredibly ill-fated sitcom.

She has a BA in Theatre Arts from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, a MS in Counseling from Fordham University, and an MFA in Film from Columbia University.
