After graduating in 1993 from USC's Peter Stark Producing Program, Scott Lew worked in various industry positions, including a five year stint as Director of Development for Beacon Pictures. While there, he worked on many films, including Spy Game, Air Force One, and Bring it On.

Scott went on to produce and direct documentaries, including Fan Club, for VH-1, and Welcome Sinners! The Velvet Hammer Burlesque, which won top awards at the 2001 Silver Lake Film Festival and the 2002 Cinekink Festival in New York.

Currently, despite his ever increasing paralysis, Scott continues to write for Hollywood.  He has three series pilots at ABC: Floral Drive, with Jinks/Cohen producing; Camp Sunnyside, with Matt Gross producing; and Shermer Point, with J.J. Abrams and Tom Sherman producing.
