Human stories that explore social justice and romance in a diverse world give me hope for the future, and that is why I wrote "Cigarettes and Eggs."

Lorraine is a writer and director with a background in journalism. After obtaining her MFA in Film and Television Production from the University of Southern California. Wheat began her film career outside of school in post-production as an assistant editor for Leander Sales on an episodic horror for UrbanFlix TV in which she discovered she loves post-production as much as she loves writing and developing stories. Wheat’s passion is writing stories that highlight social issues in a diverse world, especially stories with a romantic undertone. She has published articles at “The Hollywood Reporter,” “Variety,” USC Media Institute for Social Change, and “The Daily Trojan.”
