"The Business of Acting is packed with critical information that will benefit every actor. It helped me realize how focused a person entering this business today must be in order to succeed.
The information and work sheet on tax write-offs for actors is worth potentially much, much more than the cost of the book."
Isabel Sanford,
Emmy Award-winning actress and
star of the television series "The Jeffersons"

"I wish I had The Business of Acting when I was first starting out. It would have helped me to understand the difference between talent and skill in the acting process. Brad's perspective on casting directors put a whole new spin on that part of the business for me. His report and explanation about potential, new regulations and changes in the laws impacting how agents and managers conduct business is very important for all actors to know about.
This book has helped me rethink my career strategy in a very positive and supportive way."
Laura Bryan Birn,
actress, "The Young and the Restless"

"Finally, a comprehensive book addressing the issues we actors face in the pursuit and growth of our careers. This book analyzes the business of acting for the actor of the 21st century. Brad has developed and presents a very practical and knowledgeable approach to the complexity of life as an actor and distills his perspective in a comprehensive and supportive form without any of the usual Hollywood hype. This book is enormously helpful to those of us already in the business and it is invaluable to the actor just starting out.
I have great admiration for Brad's honesty and directness, both of which are the hallmarks of this book."
Henry Polic II,
actor, director
and co-star of the television series "Webster"

"Rarely does a book find its way to the printer that offers so much to so many. The Business of Acting serves as an industry bible to the novice, a source of inspiration to the battle-scarred working-and-sometimes-not-working-actor, a compass for the seasoned professional and a code of ethics to all. I go here when I've lost my way, and I am reminded that my success in show business is directly proportionate to the time I devote to the business of show."
Pamela Roylance,
actress, "Days of Our Lives"
and "Little House on the Prairie"

"I found The Business of Acting to be clear, concise and logical. It defines the differences between acting as a craft and as a business, then provides you with concrete tools to build your career. The only thing left for the reader to do is act upon the guidance given. It's that simple."
Matthew Solari,
actor, director
