But there’s no question that Hollywood loves adapting intellectual property. The more an author understands the different adaptation paths, the better their odds of success.

As a screenwriter, Jeanne Veillette Bowerman has adapted other author’s work, including a Pulitzer Prize-winning book, and she’s also worked closely with authors, guiding them on how to navigate Hollywood. She’ll dive deep into the processes to help writers come to the negotiation table well-informed.
