Annie Nishida is a writer (tv, features, and comics) and illustrator who has penned over 40 episodes of television. She uses her experiences as a fourth-generation Japanese American, fourth-generation Angeleno, and emo kid to explore the hilarity and horror of growing up.

After graduating from the USC School of Cinematic Arts, she became a Staff Writer on Disney Channel’s Gabby Duran & the Unsittables, a Staff Writer on Disney Junior’s Robogobo, and a Story Editor on Bunk’d: Learning the Ropes. She was most recently a Staff Writer on the upcoming series Motel Transylvania for Sony/Netflix. As a freelancer, Annie has written for over a dozen animated shows about talking trucks, talking animals, and even talking LEGOs (she’s got range!). As a creator, she’s developed original animated projects with Hulu, Nickelodeon, and Apple. She loves collaborating with other cool folks and has been sought out by actors, artists, and even athletes to craft and sell projects. Annie is currently writing two features, and a comic book for a beloved IP…and is available for freelance, staffing, and development.

Outside of tv writing, Annie writes and illustrates silly comics + prints, which she exhibits at indie publishing events across California (webstore here). She is a certified pilates instructor, competitive synchronized ice skater, and her life goal is to summon a ghost on the Queen Mary.
