*Life Changing event; how Kate became a Talent Manager: This is where the journey back to wellness begins. Stay tuned for the link to the story that changed Kate's career path and life immediately and forever.
While shooting a major commercial, Kate was hit in the back with 35 pounds of lead which whiplashed her neck to crush and shatter her vertebrae in C-5/6. Kate had a no-fault clause in her Commercial contract that did not permit her to receive restitution for her injury. Kate, while under the Production Company's workers comp Medical Care, was told by a Neurosurgeon that she had Spinal Canal Stenosis that was crushing her spinal cord and the injury would cause permanent paralysis within two years, was inoperable., and that she was to get her affairs in order.

 The purpose of Kate’s 3 & 1/2 year weekly Global radio show, "Spiritual Hollywood" (now on a brief hiatus to write her books as well as the above mentioned Anonymous Actor book) were geared toward bringing more values and consciousness to Hollywood by awakening the Actors who make our Entertainment Industry what it is today. Quality of Life and coming from our highest, best wisdom is Key in everything we do.
This quote will sum up why Kate is writing the above mentioned book: "The spiritual path wrecks the body and afterwards restores it to health. It destroys the house to unearth the treasure, and with that unearthed treasure, builds it better than before." ~~
RUMI~~ from "Like This."
We have been honored to have had the opportunity to bring you “SPIRITUAL HOLLYWOOD,” and to open ourselves to change the way movies and television are made. When we shift the way we think, we shift the way we make films, and thereby go from violence and fear, to peace and trust. It’s an important place to start.
Quality of Life is Key in everything we do.
Kate’s Interests: Hiking, Swimming, Yoga, Pilates, Zumba, Water Aerobics & all things "staying fit", the full moon, painting, writing, travel, visiting new places of all types, seeing live theater, showcases, movies, museums, listen to fabulous & uplifting music and audio books on a road trip, playing guitar, stimulating conversation, self expression, Inspirational Films, and the "Science Channel."
BRIEF HISTORY AS AN ACTRESS: Kate was a working actress for 15 years, learning to work the system out of a deep love of the Industry and the craft of Acting. While working with some of the best Agents in town to help guide the way, she managed her own career. Kate rigorously attended 100’s of Casting Director, Producer, and Director seminars keeping copious notes on all. She learned very quickly that work begets work, and that attitude is everything. Kate wrote and trained intensively with The Groundlings in Hollywood and enjoyed physical comedy and sketch work most of all. Others Kate has trained with and can recommend highly are: LARRY MOSS (Kate personally audited Larry’s class May of 2005-says "Simply amazing."), AIA Studios, Brian Reise, Al Valletta, Margie Haber, Ivana Chubbuck, Sal Romeo, D.J. Sullivan, Dennis LaValle.
Some of the films and Television shows in which you may have seen Kate include: Top Gun, Syngenor, Progeny (with "The Mummy’s" Arnold Voslu), the saucy 1940’s pin up girl for The Bob Hope Special that celebrated General Doolittle’s 90th Birthday, Married with Children, Growing Pains, series regular on Latin Rhonda, and many daytime dramas, commercials, industrials, educational films, voice-overs, video games, plays and major commercial print campaigns.
BRIEF HISTORY AS PRODUCER: Pete Bardens, creator of the group "CAMEL", was a Music Industry client of Kate’s. As a result of Pete’s disappearance for a few days it was discovered that Pete was hospitalized with a cancerous brain tumor. When Kate visited Pete after his surgery she declared to Pete that he would not have to worry about making a living while recovering and suggested a fundraiser. Kate Co-Produced a benefit with Mick Fleetwood at the Canyon Club in Agoura Hills, August of 2002. The Pete Bardens Music Cares Benefit was expected to raise $10,000.00 and was such a SOLD OUT success that over $50,000.00 was raised in Pete’s honor. Kate believes that the smile on Pete’s face that evening was easily worth 100 times that. Pete is no longer with us, but he was able to do a little something extra for his children thanks to the benefit and "Music Cares".
With an INSPIRED PITCH that utilized her natural strengths, Kate produced herself. Gaining the position of National Spokesperson for Peter Pan Peanut Butter. Kate was hired Hands Down, so to speak, to be sent by Peter Pan to tour the Country as their official Spokesperson to Arm-Wrestle for their product on numerous zany radio shows. Howard Stern and Ken Norton both refused (on the air) to Arm Wrestle Kate, good heartedly stating either a recent injury or a reputation to uphold.
THEATRICAL AGENT: After working three years with The Herb Tannen Talent Agency in the capacity of Talent Manager, Kate was invited to be a Theatrical Talent Agent with the prestigious Beverly Hills Agency. She accepted. Being asked to come on board as a Talent Agent was (in Kate’s opinion) one of the highest compliments a Talent Manager can be paid.
MANAGEMENT STYLE: Having worn so many of the various hats in the Entertainment Industry, Kate has utilized her tried and true Career & Life Coaching concepts, problem solving skills, creative talents, and vast experiences in her work as an Actor, Agent, Manager and Producer to lead her clients to great success.
Kate’s clients are Series Regulars, Guest Leads, Guest Stars, Co-Stars, Hosts and Spokespersons on all of the most current Network Television shows as well as in Commercials, Print, Voice Over, A-list Film, Indies, and Equity Theater.
Kate states that her Company is increasingly referred to by the Industry as one of the best Management Boutique Gold Mines around.
OTHER BUSINESS ACTIVITY: Results Oriented Career & Life Coach, Resume and Industry Consultant, Author, Producer, Course Leader, Motivational Speaker.
CAREER AND LIFE COACH STYLE: All the greatest Athletes have tenacious, direct and insightful coaches. "If self talk were accessories, ask yourself what you would wear to your next audition or meeting." We are strong believers in "mutual commitment." If you know in your heart that we are the right Company for you, and a one page contract that promises three years of our "undivided devotion" causes fear, this may be an indication of a lack in self trust and a fear of commitment. These are just a couple of issues that would strongly hinder your progress. Further, the way you show up in your career may be the way you show up in every area of life.
COURSE LEADER: Kate designed and completed leading numerous successful 6 week Actors courses for AIA Studios called; "Proactive Talent For A Powerful Pilot Season-How To Help Your Rep Help You."
KATE’S ADVICE: Have a life outside of the Industry that you love. If you say you are ready for success then BE ready for success. Many things that may be stopping you could be outside your awareness. Are you consistently getting close to booking but they seem to go another way and you are left wondering what stopped you from being the choice? If you feel drawn to Kate’s approach and are a committed and talented professional, please send Kate your Packet. Managing talent that is READY to fly is one of Kate’s most fulfilling vocations. In fact, she has made her Vocation her Vacation. Keep studying no matter how good you believe you are.
