So I have been using this blog for networking and to express personal opinions and thoughts. For a bit of change and as a bit of an experiment, I will promote someone who I think the entire industry should know about, Brian J. Carter (full disclosure he is my husband). After all isn’t theater about working with people you know and get along with.
Like many working actors Brian isn’t a household name, but over the last 12 years, he has worked steadily at some of the best theaters in the country (off-Broadway and regionally), has been on several television shows and done countless commercials. He is represented by Judy Boals (212-500-1424) for legit, TV and film work and by Micky Shera at Innovative for commercials (212-253-6900).
So, HIRE HIM. To all of my readers who know him, you know how good he is. To those of you who don’t, meet with him, or if you have friends who hire actors or can pass this on. Just give his agent a call and meet with him, you won’t be disappointed!
All I am asking for is a meeting with a director or casting director. Let’s see if we can get him three meetings? Of course he is a member of AEA, SAG, and AFTRA.
Maybe this is the start of a new way of getting information out to folks! I will start profiling some of the great actors, designers and directors I have worked with who I think deserve to be championed. I already even know the designer I am going to tell you about next Wednesday!

Carter Off-Broadway: Wit (MCC Theater and Union Square, original company); Brave New World Festival (Town Hall); Waning Moon Over Bensonhurst (MCC Theater); The Curate Shakespeare (Oberon Theatre Ensemble); High Road (HERE); and Henry IV (Belmont Playhouse).
