Teresa Jusino was born the day Skylab fell. Coincidence? She doesn't think so. A native New Yorker, Jusino has been telling stories since she was three years old and she wrote a picture book in crayon in nursery school. She has since brought her "feminist brown person" perspective to pop culture criticism at such diverse sites as GirlGamer.com, Tor.com, ChinaShop Magazine, PopMatters, Newsarama, Pink Raygun, as well as her own blog, The Teresa Jusino Experience. Currently, she writes for the Philadelphia-based Spanish-language newspaper, Al Dia, and she is a book reviewer for NerdSpan.com. Her essay, "Why Joss is More Important Than His 'Verse" can be found in the book Whedonistas: A Celebration of the Worlds of Joss Whedon By the Women Who Love Them (2011, Mad Norwegian Press). Jusino has recently been published in two Doctor Who-related anthologies: Chicks Unravel Time: Women Journey Through Every Season of Doctor Who (2012, Mad Norwegian Press), and Outside In: 160 New Perspectives on 160 Classic Doctor Who Stories by 160 Writers (2012, ATB Publishing). In addition to her non-fiction, Jusino is also a writer of fiction. Her short story, December, was published in Issue #24 of the sci-fi literary journal, Crossed Genres. A writer of both prose and film/television scripts, she relocated to Los Angeles in September 2011 to give the whole television thing a whirl. She'll let you know how that goes just as soon as she stops writing bios about herself in the third person.
