The Writers Guild Foundation program, The Writer Speaks, has recorded interviews with prominent writers about their careers and craft for many years. In 2013, The Interviews began co-producing oral history interviews with our friends at the Writers Guild Foundation. We share research and the content from the interviews, which can be viewed in their entirety on this site.
