Winner of the 2020 Nicholl Fellowship, Beth was born and raised in San Luis Obispo, CA. At an early age, her dramatic nature was unique…and a challenge for her mother. Because of this, her mother introduced her to theatre, where she thrived—and her mother enjoyed a well-deserved break. She danced, sang, and acted her red-headed angst away, eventually making her Broadway debut in Good Vibrations. She was in the original Broadway cast of Legally Blonde, the first national tour of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and the show that began her writing career, Young Frankenstein.
While playing the Madeline Kahn role in Young Frankenstein, she had over an hour offstage in between scenes. So, as a method to stay awake, she started writing. Little did she know it would awaken a whole new part of her. Drawn back to LA after her father passed, she wrote her first feature, for which she was a Nicholl Fellowship semi-finalist in 2012.
In 2020, she won the Nicholl fellowship with her script, Lemon, which was optioned by Mandalay (Air). She continues to act, appearing as a series regular on Disney Plus in Pretty Freekin’ Scary. She's also been in Shining Vale, American Housewife, Superstore, Hart of Dixie, Atypical, I’m Dying Up Here, Burn Notice, and more.
Just announced on Deadline, her film, The Wonder Yard, starring Jacki Weaver and Tony Shalhoub, directed by Lauren Miller Rogan, was just funded by Concourse and will begin filming in early 2024.
She has another film, Almost Normal, with Mike Medavoy's company Phoenix Films, starring and produced by Dan Aykroyd, directed by Rylee Ebsen which will film in the fall of 2024.
