ABOUT
Andromeda II is a galaxy about 2.22 million miles away from Earth. Located in the constellation of Pisces at 33° declination, there is little known about the galaxy, but its presence suggests an unseen world, akin to the imaginative space in which writers reside.
Halle Arbaugh, Co-Founder & Editorial Director
Halle Arbaugh is a novelist, WGA screenwriter, and producer. Her debut novel is forthcoming, and was optioned in a pre-empt for TV/Film. For over 10 years, Halle has built a career dually as a film development executive and writer, first working for The Weinstein Company, where she served as development executive answering to Harvey Weinstein. She left the role due to experiencing sexual abuse, and her testimony to the D.A. of Manhattan helped bring the movie mogul to justice.
Halle later worked on special projects for entertainment and political figures at L.A.-based firm Englander, Knabe & Allen (EKA) before developing a forthcoming TV series at Big Beach, where she worked as a contracted Screenwriter and Executive Producer. Ultimately, Halle spearheaded Big Beach's I.P. development branch, Beach Reads, and contributed to development on projects that premiered at Sundance, Cannes, and other major festivals alongside studios Disney, A24, HBO, Hulu, among others.
Halle has also worked as contributing writer at women-led publication Her Daily, and her writing and photography has been published by and has appeared in anthologies from Random House, The Washington Post, Highlights, Spider Magazine, and Figment to name a few.
Halle founded Andromeda II during the pandemic, naming it after the galaxy located in the constellation Pisces, her birth sign. Halle serves as Andromeda II's Editor-In-Chief and chief photographer.
