IFH 765: The Writer’s Room Survival Guide with Niceole R. Levy

Niceole grew up under the bright stars of the Mojave Desert before leaving it for the bright lights of Los Angeles. While studying acting at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, she had the revelation that she wanted to write. She worked as a police dispatcher to pay her way through USC, then completed the Master of Professional Writing program, also at USC. An alumna of the CBS Writers Mentoring Program, NBC’s Writers on the Verge, and the WGAw Showrunner Training Program, Niceole’s writing credits include Ironside, Allegiance, The Mysteries of Laura, Shades of Blue, Cloak & Dagger, Fate: the Winx Saga, and S.W.A.T.

She also wrote a feature film, The Banker, with former Allegiance showrunner and director George Nolfi, available on AppleTV+. Niceole is currently a co-executive producer on Graymail, which will air on Netflix, and has several television and feature film projects in development. The Writers’ Room Survival Guide is her first book.
