About Martha

I'm an Ohio-based screenwriter and author, currently writing an adaptation of my published book (a true Civil War event involving a strong Mother Superior, brave schoolgirls, and General Sherman). I'm an award-winning (Emmy, NATPE International IRIS, Alfred L. Dupont-Columbia University Awards citation) former news and special projects producer, writer, reporter, videographer, and editor for Dayton TV stations. I'm also a retired technical editor for the National Air and Space Intelligence Center. These past careers have given me decades of experience in production and writing collaboration as well as meeting quick deadlines.
