Writing Hollywood highlights the writing process in the production
of television drama and comedy series in the U.S. The way writers
do their jobs is heavily dependent not only on the demands of
commercial business, but also on the uncertainties inherent in a
writing career in Hollywood. Drawing on literature in the fields of
Media Industry Studies and Occupational Culture, Writing Hollywood
explains writers' efforts to control risk and survive in a
constantly changing environment. Using data from personal
interviews and a six-week participant observation at a prime time
drama, Dr. Phalen analyzes the relationships among writers in
series television, describes the interactions between writers and
studio/network executives, and explains how endogenous and
exogenous pressures affect the occupational culture of the
television writing profession.
