NEW YORK, NY.- For nearly 20 years, Franklin Leonard has made it his mission to help undiscovered writers find an audience. In 2005, he started the Black List — an annual survey of Hollywood’s best unproduced screenplays. Over the years, the Black List evolved to include a website that has hosted tens of thousands of scripts, TV pilots and plays, and became an indispensable tool for studios and producers. More than 400 screenplays that landed on the Black List’s annual survey have been produced, including acclaimed films such as “Spotlight,” “Slumdog Millionaire” and “The King’s Speech.”

The Black List helped reshape Hollywood. Can it change publishing?
