Jordan Harrison has just been named a Finalist for the 2015 Pulitzer Prize in the playwriting category. That in itself is cool enough, but time now for the extra-cool local spin: Jordan’s from Bainbridge Island Washington, just a hop, skip, no jump necessary from the personal HQ of our Beloved Leader, LB. When are we going to have a Pulitzer Prize winner posting on TVWriter™, boss? Huh? Huh?

Jordan Harrison still isn’t sure he’s made it big in the writing field.
That idea may seem ludicrous to most writers considering the fact that Harrison, 37, recently scored a slot among the crème de la crème in playwriting. In April, he learned his play, “Marjorie Prime,” was selected as one of the finalist pieces in the 2015 Pulitzer Prize playwriting category.
