highly recommended

This book should be on top of every actors/actresses shoppinglist!!

I bought this book after having been recommended it,and I must say that this one is among the absolute best in this category when it comes to books.If you want to become an actor or actress,you already are one,or if you simply want to know where celebrities usually gets spotted,this is THE book you should buy.The book is about the same size as Harry Potter book number 4,maybe a little larger,so you get a lot of information for the price of this book.I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to pursue an acting career!!!

This the Bible. Period.

I seldom use that word to describe any book. Bible. Not because the use of it makes me blasphemous but simply because I am a complete non-believer. So I simply don't use it in my vocabulary. But if acting was a religion or spiritual endeavor (it is actually! minus the dogma, yes?) and you were in the hard journey of pursuing it, then this book would be your BOOK OF LAW.

If you left home, from wherever to come over here and pursue this sometimes-so-close and sometimes-so-unattainable dream, without it, you don't know what you're doing. If you are already here and have not yet read it twice and kept it in your backpack you are a FOOL. This book covers EVERY question you will ever have about the aspect of being in this town pursuing this dream. No, it won't teach you acting but it will lead you the best in town, from coaches to photographers to what-to and what-not-to do when on set, to agents to the often IGNORED and NEGLECTED business aspect of this business. Yes, hello! this is a business despite the fact that some bohemian souls still believe this profession beats working or that is simply and SOLELY about having the ability to, which is absolutely essential and necessary I might add, channel the human condition.

Judy, I wish I could create a written language, compelling, convincing enough for me to THANK YOU for the monumental effort you have put - and still do as we speak - to compile and revise ACTING IS EVERYTHING and its, and not limited to, useful information but also the amount of wonderful advice you, and your contributors, give in this book. The amount of time and money and 405-drive-of-shames moments you saved me are incalculable. Caryn West led me to your book and you to Tom Todoroff - another best-kept secret in Hollywood - and so on. Your book and the wisdom in it are making my transition from Hong Kong to Hollywood very EVENTFUL; in the good sense of that word that is. So, Amen.

This book is freakin AMAZING!!!!
I received it as a gift from a fellow actor about a year ago and now it is like my left foot....I can stand without it. The wealth of knowlege in this book is astounding as it is concrete. The time and care Ms. Kerr obviously put into comprising the pages of this book is amazing and bleeds right through the pages. Thank you, Thank You, and Thank you again.
Finally someone who doesn't seem to have an agenda and is who's willing to give actors the straight talk and information that we are all searching for. The answers we need in order to move forward and be successful in our careers and our lives in Los Angeles, an everywhere for that matter. The honesty she puts forth is sincere, scholarly, and speaks of someone who knows her craft and cares about those working their way up. A mentor of sorts. This actor, for one, is greatly appreciative of that fact.

AWESOME!!

I love this book! I have read it from cover to cover SEVERAL times. I am not joking. I use it for reference all the time. This is an incredible guide. It is easy to understand and easy to refer to. Ms. Kerr has taken this seemingly overwhelming and unattainable dream of mine, and made clear that dreams can come true. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Acting is Everything; by Judy Kerr

This book has helped me tremendously. One example that immediately comes to mind is when I went into my manager's office to drop off some stuff and the general manager was there. He ended up talking to me for two and a half hours! I wouldn't have known what to say to him had it not been for Judy's book. While we were talking he even made phone calls and sent me some emails to help me for when I move to LA in Feb 2005. Thanks Judy!
