Known for | Daria, Beavis and Butt-Head, and Sea Rescue |
Susie Lewis is the co-creator of Daria.
She attended Temple University in Philadelphia, PA.
Lewis's career began after moving to New York where she applied for an internship at MTV and then began working on Beavis and Butt-Head producing the music video segments. She and Glenn Eichler were later asked to become co-creators for a spin-off of this show (called Daria) which focused on the character Daria Morgendorffer, who originally appeared in this show. Daria came at a request for a "show for girls" from MTV executives, so it was fitting that one of the co-creators would be a woman, and that women would make up a sizable chunk of the writing and directing teams.
