ABOUT

Bishon is an accomplished author, director and screenwriter living in New York City.  

​

In 2024, Bishon became an Academy Award Nicholl Fellowship semi-finalist with her dark comedy screenplay, Sucks to Be Stacey. Her high school #MeToo centered screenplay No Fury, and her television pilot, Hire, have also both been shortlisted by The Blacklist / Women In Film for their 2022 feature and 2024 episodic residency programs. In June 2026, Bishon will direct a short horror film called Green Ribbon, based on her adaptation of the folktale about the headless girl who wears a ribbon around her neck, told through a survivor lens. 

 

Bishon's work seeks to examine an intersectional feminine experience under patriarchal oppression, revealing the systemic dehumanization that so often plagues girlhood. Her debut novel, Paradise Madness explores the autonomy of love and desire in a world that seeks to oppress and control.

 

She lives in Queens with her partner and two Machiavellian kittens.
