Dan Elish

Today, I’m thrilled to be joined by novelist and librettist Dan Elish, author of the wonderful new book King of Broadway. Tune in to hear some of the stories of his wonderful career, including how a letter to Stephen Sondheim led to his most recent book, turning THE WORLDWIDE DESSERT CONTEST into a musical, how he started working with Jason Robert Brown, changes that were made to 13, the difference between writing novels and writing musicals, writing for the screen with WONDER PETS, how HARRY POTTER changed the market for children’s books, his experience at the BMI workshop, writing THE EVOLUTION OF MANN with Douglas J. Cohen, the musical he’s working on with Scott Frankel, and so much more. You won’t want to miss this episode with a literary mastermind!
