The Writers

Screenwriters are storytellers and dream builders. They forge new worlds and beings, bringing them to life through storylines and idiosyncratic details. Yet up until now, no one has told the story of these creative and indispensable artists.

The Writers Directory 2011 is the newly revised and expanded twenty-sixth edition of this acclaimed reference work. It lists over 23,990 writers—writing under 25,982 names—from all countries of the world who have had at least one work published in English.

The Writers is the only comprehensive qualitative analysis of the history of writers and writing in the film, television, and streaming media industries in America.
