Personal Quote:

[on screenplay-writing for actresses] The attitude toward women in this industry is nauseating. There are all sorts of porcine executives who are uncomfortable with a woman doing anything subversive. They want the movie about the beautiful girl who trips and falls, the adorable klutz. See more »

Trivia:

Took her pen name on a trip to Cody, Wyoming. "Diablo" is Spanish for "devil". See more »

Trademark:

Her writing frequently centers on a woman or girl with a public and obvious external struggle who is also hiding a much more personal internal struggle. See more »
