Biography

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Duane Adler is a Hollywood screenwriter, producer, and director most known for his work on dance- and music-driven fare, particularly Save the Last Dance (Paramount Pictures: Julia Stiles, Sean Patrick Thomas) and Step Up (Disney: Jenna Dewan, Channing Tatum).  Both of these films set box office records, putting Adler in a unique category – as author of two of history’s five top-grossing dance movies, and of the top two highest-grossing teen romances. His other screenwriting credits include VH1’s telefilm The Way She Moves, Weinstein Co’s Make It Happen, and Fox Atomic’s Venice Beach (currently in pre-production). He is co-president, with partner Nian Aster, of Hungry Yak Productions. Their urban drama God's Waiting List (Roger Guenveur Smith, Nicki Micheaux) was a festival hit that marked Duane's feature directorial debut. He was producer on this and The Valley Murder Tapes (Nian Aster). Description above from the Wikipedia article Duane Adler, licensed under CC-BY-SA, full list of contributors on Wikipedia.
