Andie Redwine.  Writer. Dramatuge. Consultant. 

Andie Redwine likes a good story.  

As a kindergartner, she fell in love with the Art Table at Roosevelt Elementary, where she busily created paper puppets and crafted tales about Batgirl making soup - complete with accompanying recipes.  

As a high school student, Andie was accepted as part of the inaugural class of the Indiana Academy for Science, Mathematics, and Humanities. Incoming Indiana high school guinea pig juniors were selected to live in Wagoner Hall on the campus of Ball State University for a grand living-learning experiment forever altering the trajectory of their lives. 

Under the sharp eyes and wits of some of the finest educators to ever hold chalk, Andie blossomed as a writer and thinker. While at the Academy, she landed a research project comparing John Locke and Henry David Thoreau for the former Younger Scholars Program for the National Endowment for the Humanities. She used the grant funding to buy her first car. 

Andie served as an editor of The Warren, the Academy's literary magazine, served as a producer and stage manager in the Experimental Theatre troupe, eagerly steeped and sipped as a charter member of the Herbal Tea Club, and co-created a somewhat avant-garde and frequently misunderstood student newspaper column entitled Mo' Betta Bagels. When she graduated from the Academy, US Senator Richard Lugar presented her and the rest of the inaugural class with Honors medals, launching an award lust she fights to this day.
