Co-Author of The Professional Actor's Handbook
While there are many books that attempt to teach people how to act, there are few that show aspiring actors what it takes to succeed as a working professional.
The Professional Actor’s Handbook: From Casting Call to Curtain Call provides struggling artists―stage and screen actors, dancers, singers―with strategies that will help them successfully negotiate every stage of their careers. This second edition provides vital updates to reflect the current industry.
