Biography
Wright graduated from the University of Arizona with degrees in political science and creative writing. While at school, he was involved in a weekly sketch comedy show named "Comedy Corner" where he started as a writer and eventually became a performer. After graduating and moving to Los Angeles, he got a job at Nickelodeon Animation and was soon hired to write on The Angry Beavers. Episodes that Wright wrote were nominated for a Daytime Emmy in Sound Mixing and for an Annie Award for Outstanding Achievement in a Daytime Animated Television Program[1]. After Wright finished work on The Angry Beavers, he created Nickelodeon's first action-adventure show, Constant Payne[2], an anime-inspired Steampunk science-fiction show. Constant Payne was shelved due to network fears of violent programming in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks.
Wright has written several video games, including Shadow Ops: Red Mercury, Looney Tunes: Back in Action, The Dukes of Hazzard: The Return of the General Lee, and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
