Nell wrote JUST THE FUNNY PARTS...And a Few Hard Truths About Sneaking into the Hollywood Boys’ Club. This is a hilarious must read. I read it twice and ate it whole. In addition to that gem of a book, Nell Scovell is a television and magazine writer, producer, director and collaborator on the #1 New York Times bestseller Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead.

She is the creator of the television series Sabrina the Teenage Witch, and her TV writing credits include The Simpsons, Coach, Monk, Murphy Brown, Charmed and NCIS. She has directed two movies for cable television and an episode of Awkward. She has contributed to Vanity Fair, Vogue, Rolling Stone, and The New York Times.

She said this, "Everyone loves the potential of a woman in her 20’s. I wish they loved the experience of a woman in her 50s as much."
