Founder and former Chairman/CEO of Abrams Artists Agency, Harry Abrams, who always knew that he wanted to pursue a career in the entertainment industry as a talent agent.
In 1958, he joined MCA Artists, which was then a talent agency. Started in the mailroom for forty dollars a week and quickly rose through the ranks.
He remained at MCA until 1962, it was at this time that Mr. Abrams and an MCA co-worker decided to start their own specialized talent agency named Abrams-Rubaloff & Associates in Los Angeles.
By 1977, Abrams-Rubaloff & Associates had risen to become the top talent agency of its kind throughout the country.
Mr. Abrams, being the driving force behind the agency, he and his partner went their separate ways and Mr. Abrams went onto form what we now know as Abrams Artists Agency.
He made unknown stars into superstars. Carl Weathers, Jaclyn Smith, Liam Neeson, Jason Alexander, Jennifer Lopez, William H. Macy, Sterling K. Brown, Michael B. Jordan, Chandra Wilson and so many others. We can literally name drop all day.
Mr. Abrams is here with his new book, LET’S DO LAUNCH: A HOLLYWOOD AGENT DISHES ON HOW TO MAKE YOUR BUSINESS AND CAREER TAKE OFF.
