Shannon Washington(I)

Shannon Washington is a former four-time All-American college athlete turned writer who began writing at the age of 12 and began doing skits for his neighbors at 15. Shannon was a natural athlete, coming from a family of professional athletes. As a result, Shannon never imagined a life outside of sports. It wasn't until his senior year in college that Shannon relit his passion for writing. As a result of feeling burned out with the politics and time commitment of football, Shannon decided to quit. With nothing to do, he chose to start writing and join the college track team. In that same semester, he won four all-American honors and wrote his first screenplay based on the outlaw Isom Dart. Shannon has shown since writing his first script that he had a talent for developing characters and making an audience fall in love with them. Newly a director and producer, Shannon is quickly becoming one of the best in the industry.
