Stacy Adelman is a writer who accidentally went to law school and then was a lawyer for a few years. Stacy would like her parents to know she really tried everything she could to not be a writer, including running business affairs for SNL, but it was impossible—she left to pursue writing full-time in 2021.
Stacy was the writers’ assistant on the first season of NBC’s “Night Court,” where she co-wrote Episode 114 (“When Abby Met Gabby”) featuring Melissa Villaseñor. Her feature is in development with Sorry Mom Pictures.
