2: June Carryl — Say Yes Selectively

June Carryl grew up in Denver and studied Political Science at Brown University, initially preparing to go to law school but ultimately pivoting to writing and acting — instead of taking the LSAT, she decided to pursue a Ph.D. in English Literature instead. June jump-started her career in entertainment when she moved to the Bay Area in 1993, studying acting while teaching playwriting and acting workshops to high-school students. June later moved to Los Angeles in 2000, where she booked her first acting roles in film and was hired to write her first screenplay. June’s impressive resume since then includes getting commissioned to write The Rings of Saturn for Visible Theater in New York, scripting her second feature, The Pursuit of Happy, and acting in over 60 projects, including popular shows like Grey’s Anatomy, NCIS, and Mindhunter.
