Take 44 - Showrunner LaToya Morgan, Duster, The Walking Dead, Shameless
We talk to showrunner LaToya Morgan. She tells us about her vision board, her ambition and her rise to the top of the entertainment business.
She explains the pressure of working on her big new show Duster with J.J. Abrams, the benefits of working with a big name and her step-by-process for moving the show forward and the importance of not overthinking what the audience will want.
LaToya tells us about her struggles rising through the ranks, the difficulty facing diversity hires and the frustration of not being given a voice in writing rooms.
She explains what she learned from that, why she wants to give back and the role mid-level and senior writers can play in supporting those at the start of their journeys.
A fascinating discussion with an articulate and powerful voice in the industry.
