About Sean

Born and bred in Johannesburg, South Africa, Sean Steinberg graduated from the University of Witwatersrand with a BA Honours in English Literature and Philosophy, as well as a MA in Film and TV.

Since then, he has worked extensively on some of South Africa's premier dramas. These include scriptwriting for Showmax’s dark and twisted ‘The Girl from St. Agnes’; script editing for Cinemax’s spy thriller ‘Trackers’; and most recently co-head writing Canal+ and Showmax’s highly anticipated crime drama ‘Spinners’ (the first African series to be selected for Canneseries). He is also the creator behind Quizzical Pictures and Fremantle’s crime thriller ‘White Lies’.

In 2022, his original pilot ‘Blondie’, a love letter to the golden age of Martin Scorsese’s crime days, was selected as a Screencraft and TrackingB finalist.
