Tamara Bos |
Editorial Board and Screenplay Supervision
Soon after her birth in 1967 in Ede, Tamara roamed about The Netherlands with her parents until she finally settled in Bussum.
Immediately after graduation from high school, she started a traineeship at AVRO's youthradio. At the age of 18 and while carrying a leaden Nagra, she went out to make items for the programme "Buut Vrij".
Her real ambition to become a cabaret performer was unfortunately disturbed by the refusal of admittance to the Cabaret Academy. But she had already started her Dutch language study. "Because content matters".
Studying Dutch didn't only mean studying Dutch medieval literature for Tamara: she wrote articles in studentmagazines, she worked at the bar of De Engelenbak Theatre, she recited her own work (depressive and erotic poetry), she wrote songs, she made radio items, she wrote texts for children's television programmes, she teached Dutch conversation at the Sorbonne University in Paris and she played softball in the French national team.
After six years she graduated with an essay on a medieval travelstory by Jan van Mandeville. Meanwhile the writing continued. At the request of Ben Sombogaart she started to write scripts for a children's series. This series "Class Dismissed" won all the prestigious awards of the world, including Prix Jeunesse in Munich. This success marked the starting point for a successful career. Not as a cabaret performer, but as a writer of screenplays, songs, columns and children's books.
By now, Tamara has given birth to seven features (two original scripts), several songs, tv-series, eighteen books and three children.
At BosBros Tamara doesn't only write screenplays, she also reads along with other scriptwriters and she musters her expertise if this is desired. Her motto: "to tell a story is a craft".
Her ambitions for the future: to write more original scripts for TV and cinema and to contribute to the final result as a creative producer. |
