Aoife Baker/Greg Machlin

Aoife Baker (they/she) and Greg Machlin (he/him) are neurodivergent writers from Maine who reside in L.A. Aoife is non-binary and queer while Greg is just weird.

Before moving to LA, Aoife pursued her love of visual art and got her B.F.A. in Fashion Design at Pratt. Greg pursued playwriting in between getting a B.A. in Theatre Arts from Brown and an M.F.A. from the University of Iowa.

Once in LA, Aoife studied screenwriting and honed her creative skills as a professional costume designer on everything from horror features to music videos for Meghan Trainor. While working as an immigration paralegal, Greg continued to write; his screenplay 7 Days became a Nicholl and Austin semi-finalist.

Aoife and Greg tell stories about found families that battle against unjust systems. They wrote for the PBS children’s show Pandemic Playhouse, were named Inevitable Foundation Fall 2021 Screenwriting Fellows, and are repped by Christophe Desorbay at Range Media Partners.
