Kathryn Machi, d/b/a ViviLu Productions, writes screenplays and stories that provide strong female role models embracing a holistic and culturally diverse relationship between the arts and community, for international audiences ages 12 to 92. A longtime dance devotee, Kathryn conceived her two dance-based scripts, FIREBIRD and BUZZ, when, as the recipient of Native American and University Women scholarships, and while nurturing a family and helming a holistic healing practice, she returned to SF State to earn her MFA in Fiction and Screenwriting. Her TV series concept, JUNE ROSE, chronicles an Anglo/Cherokee woman's journey from 1960s suburban housewife to feminist and social justice activist.

A dual American-French citizen, and a proud citizen of the Cherokee Nation, Kathryn has two grown children, and lives with her French-American husband in San Francisco, CA. VivuLu’s writing projects are supported by fiscal sponsor Fractured Atlas in New York City. https://www.fracturedatlas.org/site/fiscal/profile?id=13656.
