Sylvia Stoddard
- Writer
A fourth-generation native of southern California, she attended
Hollywood Professional School, University of California, Berkeley and
University of Southern California.
She joined the WGA when her first story was bought by "Magnum, P.I." and she was asked to join "Simon & Simon" as a staff writer (with her partner, Steven C. Smith) on the same day in 1985.
After the WGA strike and the dearth of action/adventure television shows, she turned to books about classic TV and magazine articles. Today, she writes jacket notes and does audio commentary for classic films.
