About Sharice

Sharice Bryant is a children’s fiction author, screenwriter and videographer, hailing from Ann Arbor, Michigan. Sharice discovered her love for writing at a young age during creative writing classes, when her stories typically exceeded the required page length.

The early fascination with media, combined with her love of writing, prompted Sharice to pursue her Bachelor of Arts degree with a concentration in Mass Communications at the Great Bethune-Cookman University, in Daytona Beach, Florida, where she served as the producer, writer and technical director for the campus talk show, B-CU Today.

Post undergrad, Sharice fulfilled her desire to become involved in the art of filmmaking, by attending the New York Film Academy in 2012, where she pursued her Master of Fine Arts degree in filmmaking at the Los Angeles campus. During her time at NYFA, Sharice wrote, directed and produced an array of short films, including her most prized project, My Brother’s Keeper. Since it’s screening in 2014, My Brother’s Keeper has been featured in the 66th Annual Cannes Short Film Corner in 2015, the Indie Night Film Festival in 2015, and the 14th Annual Oakland International Film Festival in 2016. While studying at NYFA, Sharice developed a newfound appreciation for the art of cinematography, leading her to work red-carpet events as a videographer and photographer post grad.

In 2018, Sharice shifted her emphasis as an author, to children’s fiction. Much like her favorite authors growing up, she wanted to contribute to children enjoying reading, just as much as she did. It wasn’t until she decided to write for children herself, that she noticed there aren’t many stories written about or for young, creative readers. In the spring of 2021, Sharice submitted to renown, Serendipity Literary Agency, the manuscript to a children's book that follows an eccentric kid photographer and the adventures she and her magical camera embark on. Serendipity loved the idea so much, that the company not only offered representation, but transformed the work intended to be auctioned as a standalone, as an early readers' chapter book series.

Sharice’s writing has been featured online at lifestyle publications such as My Brown Box and Blavity. She has co-written two Urban Fiction books and co-founded independent media house, Crowned Productions. Sharice is currently based in Los Angeles where she writes as a new children's fiction author, and works as a multifaceted filmmaker and videographer for various production companies. Keep a look out for Sharice's upcoming children's chapter book by staying connected on her social media platforms.
