The Producers Guild of America has announced that Produced By: New York (PBNY) will feature an in-depth discussion with comedian and producer Tina Fey for the event’s headlining “Conversations With…” series. Additionally, Discovery Communications will serve as the presenting sponsor of the event. Last year’s inaugural PBNY featured Darren Aronofsky, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jenni Konner and Harvey Weinstein, among others.

“The Produced By Conference has proven to be a tremendous opportunity for producers of film, TV and digital media content to share industry acumen with their peers in a collaborative and educational setting. We are thrilled to bring this unique event back to New York,” said Lori McCreary and Gary Lucchesi, Presidents of the PGA.

More participants for this year’s PBNY will be announced in the coming months. The 2nd Annual Produced By: New York will be held at the Time Warner Center on Saturday, October 24.
