Sarah Treem (Playwright)

Sarah Treem has lived up and down the eastern seaboard, but no one place for too long. She always wanted to be a playwright, which was strange in a family of doctors. Her play A Feminine Ending premiered at Playwrights Horizons in the fall of 2007, went on to productions at SouthCoast Repertory and Portland Center Stage, and was published by Samuel French. Her other plays include: Human Voices (Manhattan Theater Club's Springboard New Play series, New York Stage and Film), Empty Sky (SouthCoast's Pacific Playwrights Festival, winner of the Reva Shiner Playwriting award), Mirror Mirror (developed at Playwrights Horizons, Ars Nova), and Against The Wall (Source Theatre, DC; Friends of the Italian Opera, Berlin). Sarah's latest plays include Vienna's Amazing (Ojai Playwriting Conference) and Orphan Island (Sundance Theater Lab). She has taught playwriting at Yale, where she earned her B.A. and M.F.A. She is also producer on the HBO drama In Treatment and she's currently writing a romantic comedy for Miramax.
