About me!

Oh my god! Hi! Ah! I'm so nervous! Ok, ok, here I go:

 

My name is Orly Lewittes and I'm a recent graduate of Northwestern University, where I studied Film/TV and U.S. History. At Northwestern, I served as the head writer, director, and general cast member of Mee-Ow Comedy, the nation's longest running student sketch and improv troupe, with notable alumni including Seth Meyers, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Ana Gasteyer, Kristen Schaal, Dermot Mulroney, and others. I was also a member and director of The Bix Musical Improv and staff writer for Northwestern Sketch TV.  I've also performed stand up comedy alongside Hannah Einbeinder, Megan Stalter, Troy Bond, Clara Olshansky, and Michael Abber.  I'm an award-winning screenwriter for my feature script, Strut, and my short film script, Bat Zilla, which currently sits at #4 on Coverfly's ranking of short comedy scripts. 

Professionally, I've interned in TV and Film Development at Littleton Road Productions (The Girl From Plainville, Dr. Death), Castle Rock Entertainment (Seinfeld, When Harry Met Sally), and Kelly Ripa's Milojo Productions.

Having completed my degree, I plan to pursue a career in entertainment and am really excited to be someone's fun assistant soon.
