About the Author

Acclaimed as "the guru of all screenwriters" (CNN), Syd Field (1935-2013) is still regarded by many Hollywood professionals to be the leading authority in the art and craft of screenwriting. 
The Hollywood Reporter called him "the most sought-after screenwriting teacher in the world."
Field's internationally acclaimed best-selling books "Screenplay: The Foundations of Screenwriting," "The Screenwriter's Workbook," and "The Screenwriter's Problem Solver" have established themselves as the "bibles" of the film industry. "Screenplay" and "The Screenwriter's Workbook" are in their fortieth printing and are used in colleges and universities across the country. They have been translated and published in more than 25 languages.
