tricia fish

TRICIA FISH is a Canadian screenwriter and executive producer who creates character-driven comedy and drama for television and film. She has written and helped produce award-winning entertainment for over two decades. Tricia grew up primarily in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia and attended art schools where she made experimental films and did performance. Her professional writing career was launched with the hit feature comedy “New Waterford Girl”. She wrote and directed the feature “Dragonwheel”, shot on location in Halifax, Tokyo, Mexico City and Barcelona. She immediately had two children and failed to “balance” (ha!) parenting with writing and developing work in features and television… for two confusing and delightful decades. Offspring launched, Tricia was most recently nominated for a 2024 Writers’ Guild of Canada Award for Comedy for her work on the HBOMax/CBC produced, Peabody and GLAAD-winning series, “Sort Of” (by Zaida Baig and Fab Filipo) and wrote for “Small Achievable Goals” (CBC) by Meredith McNeil and Jen Whalen (of Baroness Von Sketch fame). Tricia’s writing has been nominated for “Very Funny Writing” at the Canadian Comedy Awards, Canadian Screen Awards, TIFF Audience Choice Awards, and she has been named a Variety Top Ten Writer to Watch. Her work has premiered at Sundance, The Toronto International Film Festival, Clairmont-Ferrand, The Lincoln Centre, NY, and other festivals worldwide.
