Nine-time Emmy Award-winner, Aaron Sorkin has delivered notable work as both a writer and producer.

Known for such films as The West Wing, The American President and Charlie Wilsons War, Sorkin took
an early interest in acting and spent much of the 1980s struggling for roles in New York. He quickly
found a passion for writing plays, developing into a promising playwright soon thereafter. Film studios
took an interest in his hit stage play A Few Good Men, and Castle Rock Entertainment quickly picked up
the project, making it his first major film adaptation. Sorkin shares his remarkable insight on creating
compelling stories and characters, including his main interest, taking a character from good to great.
