Biography

Christopher DeWan writes grounded sci-fi, horror, and horror-adjacent dramas for TV, film, and videogames. He loves stories that explore the failed promises of the American Dream. 

He has created television projects with AwesomenessTV/Viacom, the Chernin Group, Electric Entertainment, and Omnifilm Entertainment, and has collaborated on video game properties for Bad Robot, Paramount, Universal, and the Walt Disney Company. His screenwriting has been recognized by CineStory, the International Screenwriters' Association, Final Draft, the PAGE Awards, and Sundance. 

His book, HOOPTY TIME MACHINES: fairy tales for grownups, was the final book published by the acclaimed small press Atticus Books.

Since moving to the Finger Lakes region of New York, Chris has become an avid woodworker, a sometimes sugarmaker, and a casual fermenter of things. He can be found wandering the region's vineyards and apple orchards, and he dreams of someday opening a gluten-free farm brewery.
