Harvardwood is pleased to announce the 2nd Annual Harvardwood Seminar Series, running 11AM-2PM each Saturday, September 9 - September 30.  The goal of the program is to create a forum for participants to dissect and discuss emerging issues that will affect and shape the future of entertainment.  We had a very popular and successful series last September and hope to build on that success this year.  Please join us as we explore the issues shaping the film, music, and television industries with alumni and guest speakers.  HSS is open to the public, and seating is limited, so register now to receive a discount on advance tickets!  Your purchase is your confirmation (we cannot hold seats without payment).  Brunch is included.  Free parking is available underneath the WGA building.

This year's Presenting Sponsor is VarietyCareers.com.
