The actor's survival guide

"While college theatre programs focus primarily on training and technique, business or marketing skills are never taught. Inevitably, many aspiring actors yearn to play in a bigger pond, and nothing outshines Hollywood for the promise of success." "But newcomers often find Hollywood an unforgiving maze, and end up wasting valuable time and money. Every year, thousands of career hopefuls arrive in Los Angeles, and within months most will fail and give up, having made unfortunate business decisions that doomed their professional quest." "As a handbook, The Actor's Survival Guide provides a compilation of the most current professional resource information: maps, charts, appendices, documents, and glossaries. Topical information is organized to anticipate the reader's questions. As a guidebook, it provides and insider's experiences of living and working within the Hollywood film and television industry that few college programs teach and that would take a Hollywood newcomer years to learn on her own. There's and enormous amount of hard-won advice in this book, which should prove helpful to all aspiring actors with Hollywood on their minds."--Jacket.
