Alexie Basil

Alexie Basil has written many screenplays about running away but promises that has nothing to do with being from Kentucky. While studying film and history at NYU Tisch, her writing gained recognition through the Richie Jackson Artist Fellowship, Austin Film Festival Screenwriting Competition, and the Willard T. C. Johnson Fellowship. Today, she strives to create content that shows kids in tough situations that they aren’t alone. She is currently based in New York City and teaches screenwriting to more than 25,000 students worldwide through Young Screenwriters.
