About Orange is the New Black:
Orange Is the New Black centers around Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling), a bisexual woman living in New York City who is sentenced to 15 months in a women’s federal prison, for transporting a suitcase full of drug money to her former girlfriend Alex Vause (Laura Prepon) who is an international drug smuggler/mule. The offense occurred ten years prior to the start of the series, and in that time Piper had moved on to a quiet, law-abiding life among New York’s upper middle class. In prison, Piper is reunited with Alex (who named Piper in her trial resulting in her arrest), and they re-examine their relationship and deal with their fellow prisoners.
According to IMDB, Jennifer Euston is the principal casting director behind Orange is the New Black, and has worked on several major motion pictures including Bachelorette, The Campaign, and The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard.
