What others have said about An Actor's Business:
"In order to be a successful actor, you must learn how to sell your product—yourself. This book tells how to do just that and how to set yourself apart from the “herd.” Reilly, who has achieved success as an actor, director, writer, and teacher, shares his experiences with the reader. The tips on how and where to find work in New York City, Hollywood, and the regional markets are invaluable. His advice to actors on packaging and promoting themselves as a small business should be of interest to all types of professionals seeking to advance their careers. The author's breezy, witty writing style makes this an enjoyable read. Highly recommended for theater arts collections in high school, college, and public libraries."
