JULIA PRESCOTT is an Annie-nominated writer/director from North Hollywood, CA.

 

Her episode of The Simpsons "Treehouse of Horror XXXI" was named by Variety as one of the "Top 30 Episodes" of the show's historic run. In 2024, she was selected as a fellow in the inaugural cohort of Rideback RISE, an incubator for mid-career creatives founded by Dan Lin (Chairman of Netflix Films). She has taught at Chapman University and the NY Film Academy, and has been a frequently sought-out speaker at institutions like TAAF, BRIC, NYU and the School of Visual Arts.​

​

Julia's the creator of Trash Draft, a high-speed writing workshop where students complete a finished first draft of a 30-page script in just one week. In 2025, she founded The Studio Visit, a non-profit booking agency connecting public schools with entertainment professionals for speaking engagements, craft demonstrations, all-school assemblies and more. 

​

She can occasionally be found in front of the camera -- in 2024, she starred in Universal Studio Hollywood's "This is Universal" marketing campaign where she played a childless theme park obsessive, also named Julia.
