"I am a mediator and arbitrator in the entertainment industry (following a long career as an entertainment attorney and studio/network business affairs executive).  Having a thorough understanding of both basic law and dealmaking custom and practice in this industry is essential to my work.  The Essential Guide to Entertainment Law delivers on both - and I suspect that if more lawyers, executives, entrepreneurs and artists in the entertainment industry familiarized themselves with EG2EL before entering into their contracts, it might lighten my case load."

Fred Kuperberg
Managing Partner, Schuyler Road Advisors, and former EVP and General Counsel, Disney/ABC Cable Networks Group

"Having spent my legal career tackling many of the topics addressed by these volumes, I can’t think of a more comprehensive Entertainment Industry legal reference to keep within reach of my desk – or yours."

Michael Sinder
New York Theater Attorney, former Director of Business affairs for Frankel Green Theatrical Management, and Wm. Morris agent.

"Rob Williams has written a comprehensive overview on the process and core foundations of motion picture financing. The chapter provides a sophisticated level of practical detail, and in my view will be an excellent resource for interested parties."

Piers Tempest
Co-founder, Tempo Productions (UK); Producer, The Wife, Churchill and The Journey among others.

“This is must-read material from an entertainment industry insider, and will provide an in-depth look into non-scripted (reality) television production.” 

Hayden Meyer
Board Member, Partner and Head of Alternative & Factual Programming, Agency for the Performing Arts

"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
