Susan Borowitz

Susan is the author of the comedic novel, When We’re in Public, Pretend You Don’t Know Me: Surviving Your Daughter's Adolescence So You Don't Look Like an Idiot and She Still Talks to You, published in 2003.

[3] One of her articles has made it into the book, The Best of the Harvard Lampoon: 140 Years of American Humor [4] which includes passages from many Hollywood comedy writers before their careers took off.

Borowitz attributes her success and learning of the sitcom production trade to her mentor, Gary David Goldberg (the creator of Family Ties).

She learned many things behind the scenes, such as directing and editing, but also the importance of set design and the visual factors that tie together to create a successful show.

[3] She used these learned skills to help her write, produce, and co-create The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air with her husband at the time, Andy Borowitz.

It was a situational comedy about Steven and Elyse Keaton, previous hippies in the 60's, who were attempting to raise their family in a normal suburban area.

[6] The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air resulted in a change of pop culture with its popularity, influencing America on the vast lifestyles of all races.

LaBelle played a former singer who owned an L.A nightclub and the show focused on her managing "Club Chelsea" and her friends’ involvement in her life.

It was about a human single father (Grant Thatcher) falling in love with an alien mother (Sophie Bold) and their journey of living a normal life on earth.

It starred Reese Witherspoon and Tobey Maguire and encompassed their journey of going back in time trapped in a 1950s television show.

When We’re in Public, Pretend You Don’t Know Me: Surviving Your Daughter's Adolescence So You Don't Look Like an Idiot and She Still Talks to You was Borowitz's first and only book thus far.
