Our featured alum is Steven Canals '05, MA '08 screenwriter and executive producer of FX's Pose. "Pose has made history as the first network television show to feature multiple transgender women as series regulars. But the existence of the production — which centers on the ball culture of 1980s New York — had a long and uncertain journey to Hollywood, as did Canals himself."
