Hollywood Foreign Press Association

Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) is an organisation comprising of journalists who work in the film industry. The group is perhaps best known for the Golden Globe Awards of which it is the creator and on-going organiser. The group was founded in 1943 by a correspondent for the Daily Mail, a UK newspaper. The chief aim was, and is, the dispersing of news about Hollywood to countries outside North America.
