Today the guest star of a network series, and the widow of one of America's most beloved comedians, made sexual advances toward me between camera takes. It began after I started up a conversation because we're from the same east coast city. At first I thought she was just being silly, but it became more aggressive. I s…

“Is it unrealistic to get a manager before I have an agent?”Not unrealistic at all! Every actor is different and in a different stage of his or her career. If you find yourself without an agent, that doesn’t mean you are new to the business. For several reasons, any actor can find themselves without an agent during the…

1. Performance. When you’re self-submitting, casting folks have high expectations. Even though you may have just received the copy, we assume that you’ve had time to work on the material and can bring your A-game. 2. Personality.
