"In my 50 years of navigating this industry - shepherding projects from book to stage to screen and back again - I’ve rarely encountered such a comprehensive yet accessible reference on Entertainment law and business. Highly recommended!"

Max Weitzenhoffer
Olivier and Drama Desk award winning, and Tony award nominated, producer of New York and London theater productions, and the owner of six London West End theaters.

"If asked to recommend a one stop read on legal fundamentals for entertainment industry dealmaking, this 2-volume series would be high on my list. Gail Ross’ chapter on the literary publishing industry is superb!"

Jeff Wilson
VP Contracts, Simon & Schuster

"I have worked with Steve Monas multiple times during his career in the film business.  His knowledge of motion picture distribution is second to none.  I strongly suggest that anyone looking to break into this area of our business should read Steve’s chapter on Motion Picture Distribution.  It is both concise and complete.  A must read."

Mark Damon
CEO Foresight Unlimited; Producer: Monster, Lone Survivor, Das Boot

"The Essential Guide to Entertainment Law is just that -- and is worth its weight in gold."

Gray Frederickson
Film Educator and a Producer of Godfather II (Academy Award), Apocolypse Now, and The Outsiders

"Anyone with an interest in this specialized field of law would be wise to have this worthy book on their shelf.  It covers pretty much everything dealmakers in our industry are frequently concerned about with insightful commentary, identifying the applicable laws and providing a host of helpful advice based on experience. Well done!”

David Baldacci
Best-selling Author of more than 24 novels, including Absolute Power (made into the Clint Eastwood film)
