Kleinbaum adapted the screenplay into novel form, expanding on some scenes and characters while maintaining the core story and themes.
Her writing career has primarily focused on novelizations and adaptations of popular films and television shows.
While Dead Poets Society remains her most well-known work, it represents just one part of her broader career in writing and journalism.
