Film2Future will honor writer and showrunner LaToya Morgan at the organization’s first Origins: In the Beginning virtual fundraiser. The event, scheduled for Nov. 19, supports Film2Future’s mission of creating a diversity pipeline for the entertainment industry.
Morgan recently partnered with J.J. Abrams to co-create and executive produce the HBO Max series Duster. She’s also known for her work on Shameless, Parenthood and The Walking Dead, among other credits.
