Susan Shadburne is writer/director/producer of more than twenty-five hours of short educational and entertainment films, four full-length theatrical features distributed world-wide to the entertainment market. They include the Claymation ADVENTURES OF MARK TWAIN and live-action feature SHADOW PLAY starring Cloris Leachman and Dee Wallace. These films were also aired on Showtime and HBO after their theatrical run. Two short films she has written were nominated for Academy Awards, and her productions have won most major short film festivals. She has also taught screenwriting at Portland State University and the Northwest Film and Video Center. She is the owner of Susan Shadburne Productions, LLC, specializing in short dramatic and edu-tainment productions on socially significant themes- foster care, teen pregnancy and open adoption, parenting, the environment, the disabled, family violence- and in the development of long-form theatrical and entertainment films. Her recently completed Street Talk and Tuxes is a 55 minute documentary that reveals the lives of individual street kids- then follows them to the only annual prom for homeless youth in the country. Here, for one brief night, they strut, eat, dance, laugh, and forget their lives in the only traditional rite of passage they will probably ever know.
