Hello, I’m Dana!
(pronounced day-nuh, pronouns: she/her)I am an Emmy Award-winning producer, writer, and sculptor currently located in Burlington, Vermont. My strongest writing focuses on culture, food, film & television, and everyday stories that turn seemingly mundane topics into magic. In the past few years, I've written a book of short stories, produced and directed two music videos, received recognition for my short screenplays and films, contributed to numerous blogs, and created and sold dozens of clay sculptures at major conventions like Silicon Valley and Rose City Comic Cons. This fall, I will be working on turning my clay puppets into stop-motion animation while I attend a course with The School of Visual Arts. I’ve also been very into NYCMidnight writing competitions this year — so far I’ve gotten a 1st, 3rd, and 5th place in my heap!
I’m always open to ideas for collaborations. Feel free to contact me at danajelter@gmail.com.
