I get a tiny wisp of nostalgia when I hear/see the name Bobby Ball. She was my first agent back in Phoenix some (ack!) decades ago and she eventually (a daughter?) expanded into LA. She was quite the powerhouse way back when. Sorry, but I couldn't tell you a thing about the LA division. Just memory flogging.

Study their voice roster on Voicebank and see if they rep people you like and respect.

Thanks, Bruce, I did just that. I only recognized a few names and none of folks I know, which is why I posed it to the group. Yes, it was Bobby's daughter who originally brought the agency to LA from Phoenix. I don't think Bobby was still with us when that happened...and that's been a while ago. Do you know Robin Armstrong? He was also represented by Bobby in Phoenix and tells a similar story as yours! Thanks for the info, though!

And, thanks for the welcome, everyone! Guess I should have done this introduction thing sooner!

Lynne... welcome to the VO-BB! I'm usually not this late with the welcoming committee.
I am currently enjoying... again... the 1960's in Indiana.
No cable TV... No Internet... and watching the corn grow.
The local wifi at the library is my new best friend.
Again... welcome to the VO-BB.
