Craig Brody

Manager/Producer

Map Point

Craig began his career as a corporate lawyer, specializing in intellectual property law at Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP in New York. After practicing law for five years, Craig found that he had a deeper passion for championing creators than corporations. He decided to leave his legal career behind and moved to Los Angeles to pursue his passion. He joined Creative Artists Agency (CAA), where he spent over a decade in the motion picture literary department. As a film agent, Craig developed a reputation for discovering emerging talent and breaking writers and directors from television and theater into film. 

In 2020, Craig founded Map Point with the mission to better navigate the changing entertainment landscape. Map Point is designed to further nurture the creative visions of his clients, discover and launch the careers of the next generation of exceptional creators, and elevate previously underrepresented voices.

Craig represents a diverse roster of distinct voices. His clients are award-winning writers, directors, producers, playwrights, and authors who have created and made significant contributions to some of the most memorable television shows and films. Among his clients are Debora Cahn (creator of The Diplomat), Virgil Williams (The Piano Lesson, Mudbound, A Journal for Jordan), Stephen Scaia (co-creator of Blood & Treasure; writer on Tulsa King), Zakiyyah Alexander (co-showrunner of Grown-ish; writer on Russian Doll, Hunters, La Brea), and Sandra Chwialkowska (author of The Ends of Things; writer on Alaska Daily).

Craig lives in Los Angeles with his wife, their two children, and their pet turtle, Jerry.

Speaking on: Meet a Rep

At the Banff Media Festival, we met with Netflix and took a ride up Sulphur Mountain on the gondola. That’s where we made the pitch.
