ABOUT AUTHOR

Her Dad calls her Terry.

Theresa Brown is a native New Yorker & graduate of Hunter College. She writes essays and screen- plays, is an indie film-maker (“The “Right Girl”), has two web-series ( “Meg Ramsey” and “MovieCHAT” ) and always has some project up her sleeve. She's had the distinct honor of appearing with Robert Osborne as a Guest Fan Programmer during TCM's 15th Anniversary. TCM also gave her the chance to talk on-camera about why classic films are essential, with her own Fan Retro- spective, shot in Atlanta's MacArthur Park.
