Answer: Ohio university
Explanation: Boasting a seventy-year history with a well-known Creative Writing MFA program, Ohio has sprouted a creative writing haven in the American heartland. Ohio University is one of the first universities in the country to offer a Creative Writing Ph.D., with many alumni slotted into tenure-track jobs and high-profile writing rooms.
Alumni have gone on to write for AMC, Netflix, SYFY, PBS, and Marvel Studios, with work featured on stage and screen from New York City to the U.K., and most recently in Disney’s RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON. Making the jump from a creative or playwriting discipline to the screen may not seem organic, but screenwriting greats like Aaron Sorkin note:
“For me, there isn’t that much difference. The difference is that with a play you can’t direct the audience’s attention with a camera, you have to do it with language.” (Playbill, 2016)
