Summary: Accurate and Insightful
Comment: While I'm not in the habit of recomending industry books, I do praise Karen Kondazian's, The Actor's Encyclopedia of Casting Directors. It's a highly practical, intelligently written work that will be an asset to any working actor or newcpmer who hopes to find work. The information dispened in the Q&A format will help you prepare for any auditon wheter it be for the particular casting director profiled or someone else you may be reading for. A quick note; not one day after reading the book I stepped into an elavator and came face to face with one of the casters profiled in the book, I'd actiually read for this person two years before but for the life of me couldn't remember her name. Then, miracle of miracles I somehow saw her face and name from the book, and was quickly able to make a proper introduction. I use the book regularly before auditons to refresh my memory as to what each casting directors' likes and dislikes are.

Summary: The Bible on Casting Directors
Comment: Karen Kondazian's book contains invaluable interviews with many of the entertainment industry's top casting directors. As a producer and actor, it has helped me tremendously when going in to interview with various people included in her book. Because she obviously gets these people to express themselves with great candor, it really gives you insight to them as people and you get a real sense of them as human beings and as professionals. There is great advice for actors from all of them and, as a producer, you can tell if you'd be interested in working with them by their style and what their approach is. And, of course, it is always important for everyone in the business to know who has cast what and what they are currently casting. This book is a wealth of information and it is entertaining and fascinating and is different than the rest of the info. books out there. It's human and special - a must for everyone who needs to be in contact with casting directors! (The interview with Richard Dreyfuss is extra special, too!)
