Black, Female and Funny: Two women discuss writing comedy for TV
Everyone knows how difficult it is for women and people of color to find a seat in the “writers room” in Hollywood. So when you’re a woman and a woman of color, getting a seat in that room is bound to be much harder. Join us for a lively discussion with Bernadette Luckett and Rachelle Williams (COM ’07), two award winning writers who overcame the odds and obstacles to become working TV comedy writers. They’ll each talk about their particular journey, offer advice to up and coming writers and (maybe) tell us their favorite jokes that just never quite worked.
