Jessica Mollo

Suture (Stage Play), Brooklyn, NY

“I hope to bring awareness to human trafficking and its intersection with vulnerable groups such as refugees to ultimately catalyze social and political change.”

Jessica Mollo has spent over a decade as a writer, primarily of screenplays, TV pilots, and podcasts with a focus on stories that highlight human rights issues and social and psychological themes. A graduate of USC’s Writing for Screen and Television program, Jessica won the prestigious Humanitas New Voices Award in 2015 for her television pilot about sex trafficking. She has written upwards of 30 True Crime and Historical podcast episodes and currently serves as a Coordinating Producer for WarnerBros. Discovery. Also an avid writer of poetry, she performs at festivals and open mics. Recently having written her first novel, Jessica hopes to transition back into writing full-time to ultimately impact lives through storytelling.
