2016 YOUNG & HUNGRY LIST Hollywood’S Top 100 New Writers the 2016 YOUNG & HUNGRY LIST

2016 YOUNG & HUNGRY LIST Hollywood’s Top 100 New Writers THE 2016 YOUNG & HUNGRY LIST

S ince 2011, The Tracking Board has created The Young & Hungry List from the nominations and advice of Hollywood’s most infuential tastemakers to showcase up-and-coming talent: these are the most in-demand and

most buzzed about on-the-rise new writers. Whether it’s a newcomer with their frst big hit, a more seasoned

writer hitting their stride, or a veteran returning to their roots, every writer on this list has one thing in common:

an unrelenting drive to make their mark.

The Young & Hungry List is meticulously assembled from the collected votes of producers, directors, executives,

agents, and managers, and is a product of the combined know-how of the industry’s most experienced professionals.

Each year more voters turn out to make their voices heard, making each list more comprehensive than the last,

and opening the doors for more new writers than ever before. Without the knowledge and expertise of these

distinguished individuals, this list could not exist.

Aiming to both recognize and energize the momentum with which these young professionals are making a name

for themselves, Young & Hungry alumni have seen their work screened at every major festival, and their projects

featured on every major industry list. They’ve been Nicholl Fellows, sold franchise blockbusters, and created

Emmy-winning shows, all after being recognized by this list. Several honorees in the past have gone on to become

household names today.

Unlike most year-end lists, The Young & Hungry List focuses not on the scripts, but on the writers themselves,

emphasizing not just a single noteworthy project, but the foundations of an impressive body of work that’s just

taking of. Now in its sixth year running, The Young & Hungry List is still compiled with one goal in mind - to

represent the “best of the best” of Hollywood’s collected shortlists. We are proud to have become the premier

source for identifying new talent, emerging voices, and those with the potential to achieve greatness.

*As a reminder, all agents and managers are listed in alphabetical order by frst initial of their frst names.
