Jessica Walter

Jessica Walter has written, produced, and acted in several projects across the Southeast region before moving to Los Angeles, CA this past September of 2020. 

Originally from Syracuse, NY, Jessica moved to Nashville, TN in 2010 to attend Belmont University for Music Business. In 2011, Jessica was promoted to Vice President of CMA Edu, a collegiate professional development program within the Country Music Association. Jessica went on to work for multiple artist management companies in Nashville and then decided to pursue screenwriting in 2015, after an acting class reignited her love of writing. 

From 2016 to the summer of 2020, Jessica worked on multiple television and film productions, including ABC/CMT’s drama “Nashville,” CMT’s “Sun Records,” CMT’s sitcom “Still The King,” and Third Coast Content’s feature film “Roll With It” (originally titled “Lien On Me”). Jessica wrote and produced her first television pilot, called “Be That Bitch,” which was funded and shot in Nashville in August of 2019. Jessica also wrote and produced a short film called “I.S.F.L,” which won first place in the Nashville 48-Hour Film Competition, moving on to premiere at Filmapalooza in Rotterdam, Netherlands in March of 2020. 

Before moving to Los Angeles, Jessica served as Vice President of the Nashville Filmmakers Guild, a non-profit organization created to educate, empower, and inspire filmmakers throughout Tennessee. 

Jessica is currently working on several writing projects in Los Angeles and is involved in writing programs within The Groundlings and The Second City, where she continues to hone her writing voice daily.
