CRYSTAL SKILLMAN is an award winning Brooklyn based playwright and screenwriter. KING KIRBY, co-written with Fred Van Lente, GEEK! and CUT, published/under review by Samuel French, have all earned Critics Picks from the New York Times which noted, “A playwright of growing downtown renown, Ms. Skillman seems to be acquiring something suspiciously Midtown: polish.” ANOTHER KIND OF LOVE, her drama about a family of punk rock singers set in Seattle, played at the Chopin Theater in Chicago in a production with Infusion Theater Company which earned rave reviews, including the Chicago Reader which called the play a “Masterpiece” and the Chicago Tribune which noted “Skillman has crafted a poignant portrait of a family that can't run away from its own desires or demons — they simply have to learn how to find new songs for old pain.” Crystal is represented by Amy Wagner and Ron Gwiazda at Abrams Artists Agency in NY, and James Beresford with Shepard Management in the UK.
