description: "HOW TO GET ARRESTED: A Motivational Story for Actors" is a unique book, one that provides the actor with valuable, usable information on the business of acting as no other book can. Its lessons and spirit will inspire those who seek to "make it" in any profession. A personal manager for more than 20 years, Michael J. Wallach shares his knowledge and advice not in an academic way, or through dry checklists. Rather, he employs a lively, accessible and absorbable novella style to follow the tale of two young actors as they embark on the same journey as thousands of hopefuls each year. Dick and Jane move to Hollywood to become working actors - maybe "stars." They are anxious about what comes next. One hopes to "get discovered" and thinks only the biggest agent, the biggest manager, and auditioning for producers and directors rather than just casting directors is the way to fame and fortune. The other makes reasoned choices, creating a game plan for success. Author Wallach demonstrates a great affection for actors and a keen insight into the hurdles they face. "HOW TO GET ARRESTED" answers questions all actors ask, and supplies the information all actors need.
