43 y.o. (born Oct 12, 1980)
Lesley Paterson is a Scottish professional triathlete, triathlon coach, screenwriter and film producer. She won the 2011, 2012 and 2018 XTERRA Triathlon World Championships as well as the 2012 and 2018 editions of the World Triathlon Cross Championships. She co-wrote, with triathlete[a] and former journalist Ian Stokell, a screenplay based on the anti-war novel All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque, and in 2006 acquired an option on the film rights for the book. After Stokell and Paterson had struggled for 16 years – in the later part of that period joined by Paterson's husband Simon Marshall – to get their screenplay made into a film, it was accepted for the 2022 epic film of the same name distributed by Netflix.[3][4] Paterson won the 2022 BAFTA Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, sharing it with Stokell and director Edward Berger.
