Elysse Applebaum is a 2022 WGA Writer Access Project Honoree for her dark comedy pilot Good Mom. She was most recently a story editor on the Hallmark series Good Witch, and wrote the teleplay for the Hallmark rom com One Perfect Wedding. Born and raised literally tens of miles away from LA, in Orange County, she went on to study Cinema & Television Production and Creative Writing at USC. After graduation, she briefly wrote name tags on The Price is Right before getting into scripted television, breaking in as showrunner’s assistant on Brothers & Sisters (ABC) and subsequently working in various positions on numerous shows including Dolly Parton’s Heartstrings (Netflix), The 100 (CW), Marvel’s Inhumans (ABC) and Good Girls (NBC). Elysse is always down to chat about rescue dogs, Dodgers baseball and quirky regional cuisines… and TV, of course.
