This year’s juries were chaired by producers and AFI Board of Trustees Vice Chairs Tom Pollock (ex-Chairman of Universal Pictures) for film and Richard Frank (ex-Chairman of Walt Disney Television) for television. The juries featured filmmakers Marshall Herskovitz (AFI Class of 1975), Michelle MacLaren, Bennett Miller, John Ridley, Renee Tajima-Peña, Emma Thomas and Matt William, as well as critics and scholars including Dr. Henry Gates, Jr., Molly Haskell, and Leonard Maltin, among others from the AFI Board of Trustees.
Honorees will gather to celebrate at the annual AFI AWARDS lunch on January 8, 2016 in Los Angeles, CA, an intimate event to which I always look forward.
