Biography

Gerstein was raised on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, where she attended Hunter College High School.[3] After college, she attended theatre school while working as a SAT tutor and writing in her spare time.[3] After getting several plays produced, she moved to Los Angeles.[3] A personal essay that she read aloud at an Upright Citizens Brigade performance about her love affair with New York Mets third baseman Robin Ventura brought her notice from the Oxygen channel who hired her to write a pilot based on the story as well as two TV movies[3] including Tempting Adam. She wrote scripts for Life As We Know It and The O.C., and then produced Eli Stone and Gossip Girl.[3] Gerstein won a 2017 Emmy as a consulting producer on The Handmaid's Tale.[2]

Hart of Dixie

In February 2011, The CW ordered the pilot for Gerstein's Hart of Dixie and on May 17, 2011 officially picked up the series for the 2011–2012 season. The show is about a New York City doctor named Zoe Hart who inherits a medical practice in a small Southern town inhabited by an eclectic and eccentric group of characters. It was penned by Gerstein and is executive produced by Stephanie Savage, Josh Schwartz and Len Goldstein through Fake Empire production company.[4]

On February 2, 2011, Jason Ensler was booked to direct the pilot.[5] On February 15, 2011, Rachel Bilson signed on to play Zoe Hart, the main character.[6]

Hart of Dixie premiered on September 26, 2011. The CW renewed the series for a second season on May 11, 2012, for a third on April 26, 2013, and for a fourth on May 8, 2014. "Hart of Dixie" was cancelled following the finish of season 4.[7]

In an interview with Gerstein, she explained to the reporter that she loves writing about the character Lemon and Annabelle. She continues by telling the news source CW, that the dynamic between these two characters is what she enjoys the most writing about.[8] Gerstein continues to explain in the CW Atlanta interview, "writing their Southern flavored dialogue and their cute little passive aggressive dynamic are just so much fun to write".[8] Gerstein has a passion and love for her writing process and characters, that is shown in her interview.

Personal life

She is married to author and podcaster Nate DiMeo.[9][10][11]
