Bobette Buster hails from small-town America, a region renowned for their storytellers. Traveling all over the US to listen to the last of the great “folk storytellers,” she recorded their “oral history” in a collection now stored at the Kentucky Museum. She then moved onto Hollywood, to learn the business of storytelling and script development, and now writes, produces and lectures at the major studios, and in top film programs, all over the globe on how to create great stories well told.
Bobette was a Disney Fellows Finalist, 2007. She worked with Tony Scott for seven years, as his creative development executive (Revenge, starring Kevin Costner), and was a Production Consultant with Larry Gelbart (Weapons of Mass Distraction and Barbarians At The Gate).
She was the production co-ordinator on the PBS Special, In Search of Excellence and was script consultant and screenwriter on Siberian Education, (2013 Focus Features / Universal release), directed by Gabriele Salvatores and starring John Malkevich.
