Book Description

November 2000 New York Agent Book
The Bible for actors who take their business seriously, The New York Agent Book is the prototype for any actor's guide to agents. From basic contact information to background on the agents and agencies, there is no other book that is so meticulously researched and filled with so much information. Profiles of nearly 75 New York theatrical agents include their contact information, background, size of their client lists, and names from their client list. This easy-to-read guide explains what agents do, the clients they are looking for, how to evaluate agents, how to be your own first agent. Callan speaks from experience and authority about:
*

what actors have the right to expect of an agent
*

how to contact an agent
*

how to dress and how to behave in the meeting
*

how and when to leave an agent and she offers a whole list of class resources, from teachers to photographers to web addresses for unions, theater schools, internships and show business information! An added attraction: 80 profiles of L.A. agents, too!

4.0 out of 5 stars A great place to start in your search for an agent, October 22, 2001
By 
This review is from: The New York Agent Book: Get the Agent You Need for the Career You Want (Paperback)
K Callan has produced a series of entertaining, common sense, well-researched books on the acting industry and this is definitely one of them. Full of quotes from agents across New York, it contains insights and suggestions into likes and dislikes of agents, tips on how to get an agent to pay attention, what to look for in an agent and much more. If you're starting your agent search or looking for new representation, it's worth a look.
