After receiving her M.A. in English Literature, Megan acquired and edited several bestselling and award-winning books as an editor at Simon and Schuster’s Touchstone and Emily Bestler Books imprints. In 2017, she joined FX Networks and rose to Vice President of Development. She’s currently a Vice President of Scripted Development at independent television studio and production company Media Res.

Her projects at FX included multiple award nominees including The Patient, Fleishman is in Trouble, Kindred, and Pistol. She also developed the 2023 Oscar-nominated animated short My Year of Dicks. In 2022, she was named to The Hollywood Reporter’s Next Gen 35 under 35 list of rising executives, and has been called a “major player behind Hollywood’s book adaptation boom” by the LA Times.

A graduate of Northern Arizona University and The Ohio State University, her writing has been featured on Elle.com, Refinery29, BuzzFeed, LitHub, NPR/WNYC, and FastCompany. She published her first picture book biography in 2020, and has followed it with non-fiction for adults, middle-graders, and another picture book title.
