| The Players Directory is the greatest resource for casting directors. In addition to providing contact information for actors, they serve as an encyclopedia of talent. Casting director’s constantly use the directories in their discussions with agents and to seek out new and familiar faces.

| The Players Directory is a valuable tool that my office uses every day. Whether to look up an actor’s representation, scan through looking for ideas, or to remind a producer of who a specific actor is, we couldn't do business without it. |

| The Players Directory is one of the most valuable resource tools I use when casting. If you’re not in the book, consider yourself (and your career) missing in action. |

| I truly don’t know what I would do without the Players Directory. It is an invaluable source of new and interesting faces and talent. I can’t remember one project on which I haven’t gone painstakingly through the PD to find just the right actor/actress to fit the bill—and since that is one of the definitions of MY job, I can only hope that you will all continue to utilize this extraordinary resource for the casting director (or producer or whomever is in the position to say “I want to see THIS actor for the role”). Who wants to leave any stone unturned. It works, it really, really works! |

| I have used the Players Directory on an almost daily basis for the last 15 years. Often, when stuck on a role, I’ll just page through each book, making lists as I go along. The Players Directory is one of my most important casting tools and I’d be lost without it. |

| The Players Directory is an extremely valuable resource for me for casting both television and film projects. The books are an efficient way for me to track talent and find great actors. When we generate lists and ideas, it is the first resource that we go to. Every actor should be apart of this incredibly valuable directory!

| I was working on a movie called “Revelation” and we had been looking for a particular bartender. The director kept changing his idea and we had exhausted the breakdown. At lunch I was thumbing through the Players Directory and saw a young man I liked. He had his picture and phone number listed. I called him up, he came over and read and was on his way to Jamaica for two weeks. That made his Players Directory investment very worthwhile. I use the Directory all the time. |
