Building careers and protecting artists through relationships!

Spot-on. Having spent a career toiling below-the-line -- much like your bearded, bald, biker dude -- I know nothing beyond what you've shared in these posts about the agency side of the film and televison industry, but it's clear that a laser focus on short-term profits, quarterly reports, and maximizing shareholder value is dragging this country down on all fronts, not just Hollywood. Beyond such parochial domestic concerns, the same maximal approach to resource extraction and exploitation has put our shared planet on the road to disruption and destruction at levels not seen since the Deccan Traps and that giant rock from outer space ended the reign of dinosaurs sixty-odd million years ago.

Well, that'll be then and this is now, and for now, Hollywood really is a mess. Still, although I'm now digging my toes into the sunny beach of retirement, I'm glad to hear at least a few agencies are in it for the long haul.

Thanks for another terrific post!
