In 1994, in only our fourth issue, MM spoke with a young man in
Seattle who spent his days as a legal assistant and his nights as a screenwriter.
A decade later, George Wing is living the life that he then
only dreamed of—with a hit film in theaters and a host of opportunities
ahead of him. Along the way, he’s learned a number of valuable lessons about
what it takes to navigate the Hollywood waters—all of which he’s happy
to share with MM readers.
