In 1990, the Producers Guild held the first-ever Golden Laurel Awards, which were
renamed the Producers Guild Awards in 2002. Richard Zanuck and Lili Fini Zanuck took
home the award for Best Produced Motion Picture for Driving Miss Daisy,
establishing the Guild's awards as a bellwether for the Oscars. Last year, the PGA
awarded The Artist with its Darryl F. Zanuck Producer of the Year Award in
Theatrical Motion Pictures, marking the fifth consecutive year the Producers Guild has
presaged the Motion Picture Academy's choice.

To cover the 2013 Producers Guild Awards, a completed press credential application
