Michelle Hurd (’88), a member of the SAG-AFTRA (Screen Actors Guild–American Federation of Television and Radio Artists) negotiating committee, spoke with Bostonia in November 2023 about the strike settlement.

I’m proud of the actors. Every time I walked on the line in New York or LA, I was always amazingly inspired and grateful, just blown away by the solidarity and strength of our artists. I think one thing [the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers] didn’t realize is that actors have always hustled…. This wasn’t new.
