Lynne Renew is an Australian screenwriter whose script for the movie Matching Jack won major awards

= Early Life = Renew grew up in Beecroft, dropped out of law at Sydney University, became a teacher, married Rob Renew, lived in Glebe and in 1977 had the first of her three sons.

Film Career and tragedy
Renew's first child Angus was born with cerebral palsy. She studied screenwriting at the Australian Film Television and Radio School. When her youngest son Edmund was diagnosed with leukaemia she began writing a screenplay which began as Love and Mortar and later changed its title to Matching Jack. The film story is based on fact but the characters and the storyline about a mother's search for a suitable bone donor for her seriously ill son, are fiction.

Renew is writing a screenplay set on the Parramatta River.

Matching Jack
Matching Jack is a 2010 Australian drama film directed by Nadia Tass from a screenplay by Lynne Renew and David Parker, based on an unfilmed script by Renew entitled Love and Mortar.
