Ed Zwick: Author
Zwick’s long career has spanned four decades of directing, producing, and writing projects that have collectively received eighteen Academy Award nominations (seven wins) and sixty-seven Emmy nominations (twenty-two wins). He recalls the head spinning ascents and vertiginous plunges that define a career in Hollywood in his book Hits, Flops and Other Illusions – with equal emphasis on craft, and luck, and the intense collaborations he’s shared with actors and other collaborators. Talents whom he spotted early include Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Denzel Washington, Claire Danes, and Jared Leto.
