Emerging Writers on Their Way Up the Ladder ASCAP's Director of Musical Theatre Michael A. Kerker moderated a panel during The New York Musical Theatre Festival (NYMF) — a three-week celebration that features the works of the newest generation of musical theatre writers. The panel, held October 4, 2007 at Barnes & Noble Booksellers at Lincoln Center, featured emerging musical theatre writers Andrew Gerle (Meet John Doe), Tom Kitt (High Fidelity), Jeremy Desmon (I See London, I See France), Marcy Heisler (Ever After) and Laurence O'Keefe (Legally Blonde) who discussed what it's like climbing the ladder of success in the new age of Broadway. The panel was part of The NYMF Educational Series presented by The ASCAP Foundation in association with Playbill and Barnes & Noble.
