Brysen Boyd

Brysen Boyd is playwright, TV writer, and essayist originally from Tacoma, WA. He served on the writing staff for HBO’s SUCCESSION (in a position created for him), is the inaugural Playwright-in-Residence at Reverie Theater Company, a proud member of Youngblood/Ensemble Studio Theater and was an Artist-in-Residence at Williamstown Theater Festival. His work has appeared or is forthcoming in The Kenyon Review, The Florida Review, Orca: A Literary Journal, and elsewhere. Having come to playwriting and creative nonfiction in undergrad by way of his first love, TV, his goal in life is to write stories that make others feel as excited as 9-year-old him felt when watching David and Keith on SIX FEET UNDER. Writing means everything to him—second only to his miniature wiener dogs, Simon and Alvin. B.A., Boston College MFA., Columbia University.
