B. FRAYN MASTERS is the Senior Producer, Showrunner, and Co-Host of Back Fence PDX. She also produces and creates comedic videos and sketches for Entertainment for People, an alternative variety show featuring comedy, music, film, weird stuff, sketch, and mayhem. She was lucky enough to be a guest performer in wOOstock 2.1, which starred the super funny Wil Wheaton, Adam Savage, and Paul & Storm. Samples of her writing can be found in MonkeyBicycle 6, Hobart, SPORK and Mountain Man Dance Moves: The McSweeney’s Book of Lists. Writing the cell phones games for the “Twilight” movie series totally warped her viewpoint on wolves. She puts most of the monies in her bank account as an animation scriptwriter, in addition to writing for various magazines. She swoons for good stories. [Note to self: practice swooning. Also, look up its meaning.]Contact B.

SARAH GRACE MCCANDLESS is the Marketing Guru, Co-Producer, and Co-Host of Back Fence PDX. Rumor has it that she has authored two fiction novels, Grosse Pointe Girl: Tales From a Suburban Adolescence and The Girl I Wanted to Be, both published by Simon & Schuster. Further gossip implies that she has published short fiction and essays in several anthologies, including Cassette From My Ex: Stories and Soundtracks of Lost Loves (St. Martin’s), and also participated as a regional producer for Mortified Live. She has over a decade of professional marketing, strategy, and digital content experience, including working with Dark Horse Comics and Animal Planet, and currently serves as the Director of Social Media for the Swift Collective. She is the proud dog mom of Nancy Drew. She collects band-aids (new, not used). She is deathly afraid of cottage cheese.

MEAGAN KATE serves it up, kick-ass style, as the Back Fence PDX Front of House Manager and Assistant. She is a full-time writer with a Masters degree she will never use, in a totally unrelated field. Another title she holds dear is Associate Producer of Entertainment for People, alongside boss-lady B. Frayn. She can also be found on various Portland stages as a comedian and actress. Her time is also spent teaching theatre at PHAME Academy, an arts academy for adults with developmental disabilities. As a Back Fence PDX Assistant, her duties include shaking hands and giving lingering hugs to Back Fence followers, and convincing complete strangers that they should get on stage for the Lightning Round. She loves you.
