After working as an actress on and off Broadway, in regional theater, and in TV and film, Marguerite MacIntyre turned her focus to writing, adapting Liz Tigelaar's novel Pretty Tough for Tornante/Hulu. Since then, she has written/produced for genre hits The Originals and Legacies, the limited drama series Containment, and Hulu's Golden Globe nominated comedy, Casual. Most recently she was Co-Executive Producer on limited series From Scratch for Hello Sunshine/Netflix, and Co-Creator/Showrunner with Julie Plec of Vampire Academy for Peacock. We met first in the writer’s room, where I was drawn to Marguerite's keen intellect, warm heart, her facility with dual art forms, acting and writing. She wrote the powerful episode in which Amy and Lino say goodbye. Marguerite is the real deal, a wise soul, and the kind of friend you learn something new from every time you meet.
