Producers Guild Of America

Producers Guild of America (PGA) is a trade organization representing the television and film producers in the United States. The PGA's membership comprises of over 2,300 producers worldwide.

History

The PGA began as two separate organizations, with the Screen Producers Guild being formed in 1950. Their first president was William Perlberg. In 1957, television producers followed suit, forming the Television Producers Guild, with Ben Brady as their first president. Both were merged in 1962 to form the PGA. The Golden Laurel Awards (now named the Producers Guild of America Awards) were first held in 1990, which established the Guild awards as one of the bellwethers for the Academy Awards. The awards have so far been accurate, with 11 of the PGA's 15 best features going on to win the Oscar for best feature. The PGA formed a New Media Council in 2002, which represents producers of DVDs, broadband and mobile entertainment, interactive television and console games.
