Nayna Agrawal
About
Nayna Agrawal is a former mediocre investment analyst, a tortured lobbyist associate, and ruthless international aid director. She got her start in Hollywood as a Writer's PA where a writer made her keep track of her menstrual cycle. A first gen South Asian gal, Nayna grew up in India and Virginia. Her plays have been workshopped, commissioned, awarded residencies and featured on stages across the U.S. She is a Sesame Street Writers Program alum (2018), Disney Writers Program alum (2019), South Asian Salon alum (2021), and an Unlock Her Potential alum (2022). She has written on eleven shows and worked on Encanto and another Disney movie that will never see the light of day. Most recently, she was an Executive Story Editor on a secret Chris Columbus Netflix show, and her play, Brad Pitt's My Bitch, won a commission with the Bechdel Project. Her play, Slut, will be produced in October in — wait for it — Arkansas. She writes about the absurdities and outrageousness of life to help her find the will to get out of bed.
