Danielle Alexandra
Danielle is a highly respected novelist and screenwriter. Given
the moniker "the female Tom Clancy" for her mastery of the
action/political/thriller genre, her novels include White Blood and
China Doll.
An honours graduate from Harvard University, with a degree in
government, Danielle's interest in political theory and her
political activism led her to Washington DC, where she first
established her professional relationships with top military and
congressional officials. Like Clancy, her connections inside
Washington and the Pentagon have led to the extraordinary access
from which much of her acclaimed fiction and screenplays have
leaped, including G.I. Jane.
Her first novel, China Doll, was sold to Warner Books with
an unprecedented seven-figure advance for a first-time novelist.
Breaking the traditional glass ceiling of fast-paced action drama,
Danielle has joined an exclusive list of top Hollywood writers.
Emerging through the ranks, first as an executive at Twentieth
Century Fox, then running her own company, The Boston Film Group,
Danielle paid her dues as a writer/producer of several critically
acclaimed television movies. She also served as the
creator/writer/producer of the four-year hit NBC series My Two
Dads, starring Paul Reiser (for which she was honored with a
People's Choice Award and an American Comedy Award); and as the
writer/producer of several prestigious television series, among
them Quantum Leap and Chicago Hope.
Danielle's fresh, original material has made her one of the most
in-demand and hardest-working writers with projects she has
scripted at Paramount, Warner Bros, Columbia, and Universal
studios.
Danielle sits on the board of All Children Count (for children
with AIDS) and works diligently for child wish-granting
organisations, where she has received awards for her work.
