Tina Andrews Biography

TINA ANDREWS is an award-winning playwright, screenwriter, producer, director and multi-media visual artist. She is also one of Hollywood's busiest script doctors. Her nonfiction book, Sally Hemings An American Scandal: The Struggle To Tell The Controversial True Story, won the NAACP Image Award for "Outstanding Achievement in Literary Nonfiction" and the Literary Award of Excellence from the Memphis Black Writers Conference. The book was based on her award-winning CBS miniseries, Sally Hemings: An American Scandal which she wrote and Executive Produced. It was the highest rated, most watched miniseries of the season garnering Miss Andrews the Writers Guild of America Award for "Outstanding Longform Television," and the NAACP Image Award for "Outstanding TV Movie, Miniseries or Special." CBS bought the miniseries based on her play "The Mistress of Monticello" which Andrews directed at the Chicago Dramatists Workshop.

Andrews' contribution to film and television led her to be honored with the MIB/Prism Filmmaker Image Award; and a Proclamation from the City Council of New York.

Miss Andrews was also writer and Executive Producer of the CBS miniseries, Jackie Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, and she wrote the Warner Bros. film, Why Do Fools Fall In Love? starring Halle Berry. Her script for the film is the basis for an upcoming Broadway musical on which Andrews has written the book and co-written the music and lyrics. She also wrote, produced and directed the hugely popular Showtime animated series Sistas 'n the City; and has an essay in the book, The First Time I Got Paid For It: Writers Tales From The Hollywood Trenches (Public Affairs). Miss Andrews has published essays in the Los Angeles Times, Written By and Creative Screenwriting magazines among others.

After New York University where she majored in theater, Andrews performed as an actress in over 100 film and television roles including Conrack, starring Jon Voight, Carny starring Jodie Foster, and her seminal role as Valerie Grant on Days Of Our Lives in daytime television's first interracial romance. But it was the role of Kunta Kinte's girlfriend "Aurelia" in the acclaimed miniseries Roots which led to an incredible relationship with her literary mentor, author Alex Haley. Together they collaborated on the PBS miniseries Alex Haley's Great Men of African Descent. It led to Andrews' first script sale to Colombia Pictures.

Tina Andrews has been a guest on The Oprah Show; CBS This Morning; Mysteries and Scandals on E! Entertainment; PBS Frontline; and BET Now with Ed Gordon. She has lectured on writing at New York University, University of Southern California, Los Angeles City College, Cal-State Northridge, UCLA, Colombia College, Indiana University and the University of North Carolina. She serves on the board of directors of the Hollywood Black Film Festival, the Writers Guild Foundation, and the Indiana University Black Film Archives.

In February, 2013, Miss Andrews had the pleasure of being asked to direct a Staged Reading of the Pulitzer Prize winning play "Clybourne Park" by Bruce Norris at the famous Guild Hall theater in East Hampton. Her latest play which Andrews also directed "The Mistress of Monticello" based on her award-winning CBS miniseries, just ended a successful run at the Southampton Cultural Center and it is being prepped for a Regional and West End run.

Currently, she has adapted her new historical fiction novel, Charlotte Sophia: Myth, Madness and the Moor, based on Britain's Queen Charlotte Sophia who was of African descent, into a play which she directed to sold-out audiences at Santa Monica's acclaimed Highways Performance Space. That play, now entitled "Buckingham" will have its East Coast premiere at the Center Stage Theater at the Southampton Cultural Center where she has just been named Playright-in-Residence. The production opens on May 3, 2013 for three weeks before a regional run at the Pasadena Playhouse and a commercial run on Broadway. Miss Andrews is directing the production.

Additionally, her one-woman show: "Life In The Abstract" (which features 20 of her abstract paintings) goes up for another run at Highways Performance Space in 2014.

Tina Andrews was named one of 50 To Watch by Hollywood Daily Variety.
