Stephanie Liss is a playwright and television writer whose groundbreaking work consistently gives voice to the voiceless. Her television credits include: Second Serve - the Renee Richards Story; the Writers Guild nominated David - the David Rothenberg Story; and Hidden in Silence, for which she won a WGa award. Her play, Faces of War, about an Israeli and a Palestinian, was presented at the 92nd Street Y / Makor in New York. Research for this project took Liss to Lebanon where she went underground with the PLO and Hamas and spent time with Yasser arafat in his compound in Tripoli Lebanon. While in Beirut, Liss attended Shabbat with the Israeli army in the mountains high above the city. She has lived in Africa, traveling with the Maasai, and was part of a nine-woman group sent to the former Soviet Union in order to bring aid to underground Jewish communities there. In 1992, Liss was among six writers invited to accompany the United Nations High Commission on Refugees to Somalia and Bosnia in order to document the stories of the genocides and wars in both countries. Liss is an alumni of the Tisch School of the Arts at NYU, where she studied Theatre.

Research:    Member of the Dramatists Guild of America (as at 2015)
