Marc Isaacs

Marc Isaacs is a screenwriter, actor, and producer, originally from rural northern New York and now based in San Antonio, Texas. He's a member of SAG-AFTRA who began using his weekly acting class in North Hollywood to workshop original scene material rather than relying on produced scripts. Since then, he's shifted his focus to writing first, and he enjoys developing stories, screenplays, and pilot scripts intended to generate awareness of lesser-known historical figures and events-and introduce true stories from his own life. He's written or co-written numerous short films in the comedy genre, including one about the unique first-time sexual experience of a young woman with a disability (First Timers) and another about a self-storage employee profiting from the social misfits he invites to live in vacant units (Storage Town). Before stepping into narrative storytelling, he worked stints in television, producing original programs and news content, and serving on-air as a weathercaster and traffic reporter. His background outside of entertainment includes roles in Special Education in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and Los Angeles, California. In LA, he worked with children of all ages as a Board Certified Autism Technician. These positions were preceded by roles during college as a summer camp counselor at two facilities in upstate New York for youth and adults with developmental disabilities. Marc is a former board member of Women in Film & Television Houston, Texas, where he served as Vice President and became the WIFT chapter's first male board member. A children's educational TV series that he co-created and produced, Houston ZooperStars Challenge, ran for three seasons on Houston's CBS affiliate and earned multiple Lone Star Emmy nominations. His work as a television writer-producer in the Houston market also included hour-long specials for the CBS affiliate and medical segments for national distribution.
