"I don’t think an actors private life is entertainment for other people. So I never ask anybody any personal questions of any kind."
BOB KRAKOWER is recognized as one of the top acting teachers and coaches in the business. His clients have been nominated for the Academy, Emmy, and Tony Awards. He is currently creating inaugural on-camera acting programs at UNCSA and Juilliard. He has been on guest faculties at Yale, Harvard, & NYU. Sought after by studios, networks, producers, and actors, he works from his home base in New York, while maintaining a schedule of coaching on set for film and television around the country.

• Worked in casting with Alexa Fogel and almost got booted off casting NYPD Blue
• Tips for actors on how to approach a scene
• How he got reruns of My So Called Life on MTV after it was cancelled
• Tips for actors that they can do right now to become a better actor
