Stephen Sewell (writer)
Stephen John Sewell (born 13 March 1953) is an Australian playwright and screenwriter. Biography Born in Liverpool, New South Wales, Sewell's first theatre experience was in the 1970s in the fringe theatre while he was studying Science at the University of Sydney, where his first play was staged in 1975.

On 15 October 2012, Sewell was appointed Head of Writing at the National Institute of Dramatic Art.
