  Casting directors play a critical role in the careers of actors, recommending performers for both leading and supporting role. It's vital for actors to know what casting directors look for when they cast movies, TV shows, commercials and plays. This is a sourcebook for actors that tells who the top CDS are and how they work. Fifty of the top stage and screen CDs are highlighted with a list of credits. How they can be contacted, extensive information on their methods of casting, how they discover and use unknown talent, and advice for aspiring actors are given. A more complete list of CDs is supplied at the back of the book, along with recommendations for resumes, headshots, videotapes, and working with agents.
