Funny Looking - Meg Favreau 2b

Meg Favreau is an LA-based screenwriter, filmmaker, and visual artist. She’s currently co-writing The Twits for Netflix, based on the Roald Dahl book, and her most recent short film was Hot Dog Steering Wheel. Meg has also written on series for Hulu, Netflix, Warner Brothers, Mattel, and Hasbro; and she was one of four writers selected for the 2017 Screenwriters Colony Episodic Lab, a screenwriting retreat in a rambling Nantucket farmhouse that may or may not be haunted.

Meg’s humor writing has appeared in publications including The New Yorker, Real Simple, Eating Well, The American Bystander, and McSweeney’s. She also has a background in food and weird history writing, and her cookbook, Little Old Lady Recipes: Comfort Food and Kitchen Table Wisdom, was published in 2011 by Quirk Books.

Originally from the birch-fingered clutches of northern New Hampshire, Meg grew up in a town so small that the only place to hang out was the town dump.
