About Me
- Lynn Montgomery
- I am a writer. It is the only real job I ever had, except the stint in Paris as a fashion model, but that was several wrinkles and many lifetimes ago. (My kids swear those pictures are not me!) I would write even if no one paid me, but my husband (artist, Richard Kriegler) is very pleased that from time to time they do. I have won a Los Angeles area Emmy, a Writer’s Guild Award for best Children’s Teleplay, and was nominated for two Cable Ace Awards. I am the creator of the NBC and Disney Channel series, The Torkelsons. I was a staff writer on the New Carol Burnett Show. I adapted Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle for Showtime, starring Jean Stapleton, Shelley Duvall, Christopher Lloyd, Joan Cusack and James Whitmore. I developed projects for Disney Feature Animation, including "The Snow Queen" and "Sinbad." And I worked on numerous other wonderful projects for many of the major studios that will probably never see the light of day. Oh well, there's always books...
Children's Books
I just completed my 4th Children's book with the fabulous illustrator, Terrie Redding. "Butt Ugly" is available now, and "Butt Ugly Love" and "The Nine Lives and Misadventures of Marcy, The Marvelous Cat" are in production. "Fat Chick" and "Hannah Smashed Banana" are also in the works. And for those awaiting the arrival of my Young Adult novel,"Coop Cooper and the Zombies of Monte Verde," I say, I am waiting, too!
FROM BRANDON TARTIKOFF
"I read your script at a point in my life when I needed to find something life affirming. Your script (pilot for THE TORKELSONS) was that for me. Thank you."

FROM ED BEGLEY JR.
Butt Ugly is "a beautiful message in a 100% GREEN package. As a parent, this is what I've been waiting for!"
FROM JEAN STAPELTON
"When a character leaps off the page with dimension, richness and clarity, this speaks excellent writing to me and LYNN MONTGOMERY supplied this as well as a context of literacy, imagination, humor and substance to make playing the role of MRS. PIGGLE-WIGGLE a real joy."
