Skye Dent, MA ’80, writes: “Just a note of positivity in the midst of the layoffs of so many journalists. I’ve been able to parlay my journalism skills into some major and fun positions over the years. Writing scripts for Star Trek Voyager, The Burning Zone and Showtime. Producing and writing docs for Discovery Channel, PBS, CBS and AMC. Teaching at Bill Cosby’s Future Filmmaking Workshop. Unit publicity for Fled, To Sleep With Anger and six other films. Assisting on ABC’s Dirty Sexy Money. Teaching at universities in California and North Carolina, even writing a safe-sex video game for the NIH. Always remember and never forget…writing rocks!”
