The WME literary media department, responsible for working with authors and shepherding screen adaptations of their literary works, is marking its tenth anniversary in the wake of a big showing at this year’s Emmys.

“DTF St. Louis,” which featured WME client and series star/executive producer David Harbour, cleaned up in the limited series category at awards last month. The HBO show picked up seven wins, including outstanding limited series, outstanding supporting actor (Harbour) and actress (Linda Cardellini), and outstanding writing and directing (both for Steven Conrad).
