Darnell Hunt, UCLA’s Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost, will discuss topics including UCLA’s Strategic Plan; UCLA’s recent acquisitions in Palos Verdes, Downtown L.A., and the technical park at the former Westside Pavilion; Dr. Hunt’s time time as Interim Chancellor; and his research on the Hollywood Diversity Report. He will discuss these topics with Stuart Wolpert, director of UCLA Conversations, followed by an audience Q&A.

He is a professor of sociology and African American studies at the University of California, Los Angeles and the former director of the Ralph J. Bunche Center for African American Studies.

  Hunt has written extensively about issues related to race, media and culture, including four books and numerous articles for both scholarly journals and media outlets. For more than two decades, he has studied questions of access and diversity in the entertainment industry. From 2014 to 2022, he was the lead author of UCLA’s annual Hollywood Diversity Report, providing comprehensive analyses of the employment of women and people of color in front of and behind the camera in film and television.
