Correct Answer: of a best young


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

Explanation:

The correct phrasing should be one of the best young directors , not one of a best young directors . When expressing a superlative form, it is incorrect to use both a and best together as the superlative degree of the adjective is preceded by the definite article "the".

Therefore, the correct sentence is: She's considered one of the best young directors in Hollywood.
