Jenna Fischer's Hollywood journey began at the age of 22 when she
moved to Los Angeles from her hometown of St. Louis. With a theater
degree in hand, she was determined, she was confident, she was
ready to work hard. So, what could go wrong? Uh, basically
everything. The path to being a professional actor was so much more
vast and competitive than she'd imagined. It would be eight long
years before she landed her iconic role on The Office, nearly a
decade of frustration, struggle, rejection and doubt. If only she'd
had a handbook for the aspiring actor. Or, better yet, someone to
show her the way-an established actor who could educate her about
the business, manage her expectations, and reassure her in those
moments of despair. Jenna wants to be that person for you. With
amusing candor and wit, Fischer spells out the nuts and bolts of
getting established in the profession, based on her own memorable
and hilarious experiences. She tells you how to get the right
headshot, what to look for in representation, and the importance of
joining forces with other like-minded artists and creating your own
work-invaluable advice personally acquired from her many years of
struggle. She provides helpful hints on how to be gutsy and take
risks, the tricks to good auditioning and callbacks, and how not to
fall for certain scams (auditions in a guy's apartment are probably
not legit-or at least not for the kind of part you're looking
for!). Her inspiring, helpful guidance feels like a trusted friend
who's made the journey, and has now returned to walk beside you,
pointing out the pitfalls as you blaze your own path towards the
life of a professional actor.
