    As a first time entrant I think the PAGE Awards are a really good advertisement for an industry more usually viewed with suspicion. The Awards are a rare opportunity for new talents and ideas to percolate in a daunting business that, to an outsider at least, seems more driven by hype, fashion and ego than ideas. I can highly recommend the PAGE Awards and would like to thank all involved for the time they've put it in to cultivating new ideas and visions.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE TEAM

Jennifer Berg
Administrative Director
With her extensive background in script development, production and marketing, Jennifer has been the guiding force behind the PAGE Awards since the contest’s inception in the fall of 2003. Jen began her career in the Midwest, where she worked on stage productions as a writer, producer and director, and also as a freelance editor. She moved to Los Angeles in 1992, and has since held a variety of administrative positions with film and television production companies and independent producers. She is currently responsible for the overall administration of the contest and its associated endeavors.

John Evans
Managing Director
Since making the move from Boston to Los Angeles in June 2001, John has worked in the development departments at The Donners’ Company, Kopelson Entertainment, ABC and AEI. He has taught writing at the university level and mentored budding writers in the WGA’s Young Storytellers Program. John has been a PAGE Awards judge since 2005 and became our Managing Director in October 2008. In this position he is responsible for coordinating our judges, editing our eZine, and promoting our winning writers.

Zoe Simmons
Contest Coordinator
A multi-lingual former military kid, Zoe was raised all across the U.S. and Europe, and in the process attended a total of 13 different schools. She received her university degree in English with a minor in Film, and has spent the last 15 years working for a number of production companies here in Hollywood, where she does her best work quietly and efficiently behind the scenes. Zoe has found her home at the PAGE Awards and returns again this year as Contest Coordinator. In this position she processes all script submissions and payments, handles customer relations, and keeps the contest running ship-shape.
