: Re: Photos in Screenplays I cannot seem to find any information about this question. Is it appropriate to include photos of characters in a biographical screenplay?

Have to agree with rolfedh. As a professional reader I always get uneasy when I receive an "unconventional" script. The main reason for this is that it suggests that the writer couldn't find a way to express what they mean in the script itself, and had to somehow bolster their work with additional material that will never make it to the screen. If your photo's are actually going to appear, and showing the stills contributes to the story then great. If not, or if they are meant to improve the script as a document, then don't. Additional advice available at shorescripts.com. Best wishes with the writing.
