• October 2018
In a previous life, Scott Ganz was a screenwriter, who transitioned from writing appallingly cruel jokes about celebrities on Comedy Central to the family space, where he worked for the Muppets and PBS. It was while working on WordGirl for PBS kids that Scott won an Emmy for outstanding writing in animation. Scott then transitioned to conversational entertainment, working for nearly 5 years at ToyTalk (now called Pullstring). While there, Scott wrote, designed, and creative-directed conversational experiences for kids and adults, including original projects (The Winston Show, SpeakaZoo) as well as work for major IPs (Thomas & Friends, SpongeBob Squarepants, Doctor Who, Call of Duty). These days, Scott's working as a conversation designer at Intuit.
