Ferrer wrote for 'Dawson's Creek' and 'Wasteland.' She died by suicide after an ongoing struggle with long-haul COVID-19, her husband said.
In 1999, Ferrer served as a writer for several episodes of the hit teen drama “Dawson’s Creek” and “Wasteland,” on which she worked with producers Kevin Williamson and Julie Plec. Over her career, she sold screenplays and pitches and did re-writes for major studios. Her 2008 movie, “Princess,” for ABC Family did well for the network and played for many years.
That same year, Ferrer pivoted her writing skills to the web where she started her blog, GirlToMom.com, to document her then-infant son’s battle with progressive infantile scoliosis. As her online following grew, so did the incorporation of writing into the blog. In 2014, she was invited to speak at the BlogHer Conference.For her passionate advocacy, the Infantile Scoliosis Project honored Ferrer in 2010 with the National Hero Award.
Ferrer is survived by her mother, Nancy Gilmore; sisters Laura Frerer-Schmidt and Sierra Summerville; her husband Nick Guthe, a screenwriter, director and producer; and her 13-year-old son, Bexon.
