"Having spent my legal career tackling many of the topics addressed by these volumes, I can’t think of a more comprehensive Entertainment Industry legal reference to keep within reach of my desk – or yours."

Michael Sinder
New York Theater Attorney, former Director of Business affairs for Frankel Green Theatrical Management, and Wm. Morris agent.

“Things are changing so quickly in the entertainment industry, professionals in every sector of the business are struggling just to keep up.  I can think of no more current or focused resource concerning the rapidly evolving medium of television than Ken Basin's chapters on this topic, and no one more qualified or capable than Ken to serve as a guide through this challenging landscape.”

Nick La Terza
Partner with law firm The Point Media, and former senior legal/business executive for Largo Entertainment, New World Pictures, and Alliance Atlantis Entertainment

"In my 50 years of navigating this industry - shepherding projects from book to stage to screen and back again - I’ve rarely encountered such a comprehensive yet accessible reference on Entertainment law and business. Highly recommended!"

Max Weitzenhoffer
Olivier and Drama Desk award winning, and Tony award nominated, producer of New York and London theater productions, and the owner of six London West End theaters.

"Steve Monas is one of the top lawyers in the independent film distribution business, and he has brought his thirty-plus years of experience to bear in his chapter on Motion Picture distribution. Clear and concise, practical and interesting, filled with practical tips derived from actual sample agreements, this chapter will be of use to practitioners interested in developing expertise in these types of transactions, and even experienced attorneys will find it informative. It is so well-written that I plan to assign it to my motion picture seminar students, as soon as available."

Jay Dougherty
Professor of Law & Director, Entertainment/Media Law Institute & Concentration Program Loyola Law School (Los Angeles)

"We (Sierra Club) now own three sets of The Essential Guide to Entertainment Law. We knew we could gain valuable insights into the subject matter from anything Jay Shanker and his colleagues would offer."

Louis Barnes
Chief Financial Executive, Sierra Club
