Showrunner Sessions with THIS IS US' Isaac Aptaker & Elizabeth Berger
An event in support of The Writers Guild Foundation.
About This Event
Fresh off its second season as one of network TV's most watched shows, NBC's This Is Us has made audiences laugh, cry, and absolutely fall in love across decades with the Pearson family.
On this special event, co-showrunners Isaac Aptaker & Elizabeth Berger (This Is Us, Love, Simon) share how they craft each season's episodes, from plotting the layered character arcs to navigating through multiple timelines, how they run the writers room, and all the lessons they've learned along the way. Moderated by Yvonne Villarreal of the Los Angeles Times.
Doors open at 7pm. Event starts at 7:30pm.
All events advertised on our “Events” page are open to anyone who wants to buy a ticket – not just WGA members!

Event to Support The Writers Guild Foundation
Founded in 1966, the Writers Guild Foundation is the premier resource for emerging writers and movie and TV lovers in Hollywood. Boasting a busy calendar of high-value events and a vast, seemingly bottomless toolbox for writers, the Foundation is unmatched in its mission to promote and preserve the craft, history, and voices of screen storytelling. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we’re proud of all we do for the community, including our Veterans Writing Project, our Volunteer and Mentorship Programs, our Archive, and the Shavelson-Webb Library – the world’s only library devoted entirely to writing for the screen.
