ERIN KING'S BIOGRAPHY

I was born and raised with my younger brother in Lansing, Michigan by a single mother who is now a retired professor. Since I was ten years-old, I have possessed a strong fondness for creative writing and was encouraged by my family to write as often as possible. In November 2014, I attended the "Outside The Box" short film competition in Bakersfield, CA, in which my short documentary film, Legend of Bristol Avenue, was a finalist. Although I did not win, I did have the pleasure of viewing many amazing short films by some wonderfully talented artists.

Over the years, I have had the opportunity to live and work in numerous states and have traveled to Europe and the U.K. After working in New York City for a time in various administrative capacities, I decided to return to school to obtain a degree in film. I chose Penn State University's film program and as time passed I found myself gravitating toward the field of politics as well. I graduated from Penn State as an adult learner in May 2013 with a Bachelor of Arts in Film-Video and a minor in Political Science.
