Agents on Actors: Sixty Professionals Share Their Secrets on Finding Work on the Stage and Screen
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Agents representing actors across a wide spectrum of show business opportunities give candid career advice in this one-of-a-kind guide.
Based on interviews with sixty industry professionals, this book takes you behind the scenes to show how performers' representatives do their work day to day: how they help actors in the business of finding employment, and how they explore and define opportunities in specialized fields for ethnic, teen, juvenile, senior, and other categories of performers.
Some agents focus on one niche of the market-jobs in commercials or soap operas-some specialize in modeling, and still others cover a broad range of stage and film work. The author profiles people working in various-sized agencies in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Boston, Denver, Houston, Miami, Seattle, and other cities. Also discussed is using the Internet to find leads.
