Publisher's Notes
Edgar Small is not the first actor who became an agent, but he may be the first agent who returned to acting after spending forty years as a producer and agent. This intimate connection with both sides of the agent's desk gives Mr. Small an unusually well-informed perspective from which to address issues of concern to both the ingenue and the seasoned actor.
