Spring Lecture Series 2010
Saturday, March 6th 10:00am – 12:00pm
Jim Jarrett The Business Of Your Dream - “Every hour of every day planes are landing at LAX from all over the world full of people beginning their dream of becoming an actor in Hollywood,” says Jarrett. “And while those planes are landing just as many are taking off, packed full of people who’ve been crushed by that very same dream … and that’s because most actors, most artists are not very good at ‘the business of their dream.’ In fact, there is nothing more common in Hollywood than talented, out-of-work actors. I’d like to help anyone interested in changing that.”
