 Posted: Tue Aug 18, 2009 8:43 am Post subject: James Earl Jones agent? |
 |
|
| I had a call from a land developer that wants to use James Earl Jones as his "voice". Outside of a place called "Horatio Productions" in New York, I haven't been able to find an authorized agent for Mr Jones. I would appreciate any info that anyone could share. Thanks very much. |

There was a time that James Earl Jones's deal with Verizon was exclusive such that, other than his CNN bumpers and an occasional public service announcement, he could not do commercials for any other client (not just other telecommunications providers).

Thanks, Ed. I ran this down once before for another "big name", and they're just a middleman, not an actual agent for the talent. They have lots of names in their rolodex and may know who to call, but they're not the actual point person.

Yup, was just about to give you that name. We used him for an educational project some years ago and he was the consummate pro.

| Dutch Caribbean? Which island? I'm only nine months off the last visit to St Maarten and my brain is screaming for the ocean. |

| I live on Curaçao 80-90% of the year (when I'm not in The Netherlands...) and I'm flying back this Friday. |

Heh. We're going to be on Curacao later this year for a day... maybe we should coordinate, eh?

I can't help but wonder if this land developer wants to hear James' take on the phrase, "In a world."
