Julia Betancourt is a high school senior who has been interested in the written word from an early age. Her short play “The Thief on the 11 Bus” and monologues “He Could…” and “Picture It” have appeared onstage at the Franciscan Community Center. Several more scenes are scheduled to appear this November. Her essays “Checkmate Mate” and “American Dream” have been published in Conversatio, the Notre Dame School Literary Magazine. Her piece in the 2012 Barnes and Noble Favorite Teacher Essay Contest came in first place regionally. She hopes to major in creative writing in college.
