About Kimberlea:
Kimberlea Kressal relocated to Los Angeles to write for television, following a twenty-year career in New York City as a playwright and theatre director. Kimberlea received her first opportunity to write for television on the second season of Z The Beginning of Everything. She sold her semi-autobiographical queer dramedy Stealth to Escape Artists/UCP. She has developed TV projects with Gavin Polone's Pariah, Automatik, MGM-Orion, Danny Rose Productions, Dynamic Television, Milojo, Condé Nast, and ABC Signature. Kimberlea is the writer and librettist of the stage musical Lesbian Love Octagon, which played to sold-out houses and rave reviews off-Broadway and was developed as a series by DiGa Studios. For ten years she was the Resident Director for the New York City-based theatre company Wreckio Ensemble.
