This summer, Tisch Drama's Office of Career Development & Alumni Engagement stopped off in Los Angeles to meet with alumni, tour the new NYU LA program spaces, and attend the Tisch alumni cocktail party.
Rachel Friedman, who heads the office, said she spent a lot of time hearing from alumni who work primarily in film and TV, who are also busy creating original work. In addition to catching up on their lives post-Tisch, she was there to learn how the office can continue to support them.
“It was echoed through these meetings that alumni felt strongly about their NYU Tisch community in LA,” she said, “because once they left New York, this was the community of collaborators they continue to work with and feel closest to.”
Friedman also met with alumni who spearheaded and continue to work with programs in New York.
“Both Bryce Dallas Howard and Brendan Bradley are fantastic collaborators and continue to build on the programs they have started with NYU Tisch Drama,” she said.
