Canisius alumnus Gregg Maday ’70 will visit campus on Thursday, March 21 at 1:30 p.m. in the Science Hall Stranczek Commons.

He will give an in-depth discussion about the creative process specific to screenwriting, from the perspective of a development executive. He has a decades-long, impressive career in the entertainment industry. He started out at CBS, then moved on to HBO, and ultimately spent 26 years with Warner Brothers. He has developed comedy and drama series, longform film, documentary, animation, live award and event programming, and was finally the founder of Warner Theatre Ventures.

Interesting fact: Gregg’s aunt, Marie Maday, is the namesake for our Marie Maday Theatre. 

Gregg will not only talk about his career but will also discuss the creative process specific to screenwriting, from the perspective of a development executive. Regardless of your study or personal interests, this promises to be a very interesting and informative hour. Q&A to follow.

All are welcome. For more information, Email Sarah Galasso at galassos@canisius.edu.
