バイオグラフィー
A native of Philadelphia, Fran began her career after graduating from Temple University. She joined The Hiller Agency in the late 70's, learning from the ground up as the assistant to two agents. The Hiller Agency eventually became Bauman, Hiller and Associates. Bauman, Hiller launched the careers of actors such as Don Cheadle, Joe Mantegna, Jean Stapleton, Ted Danson, John Ritter, Howard Hesseman, Mike Farrell, Vivica Fox, and Daniel J. Travanti. The agency became a powerhouse boutique with highly revered actors in both film and television on the West Coast, and in theatre on the East Coast. In 1990, Fran went to work for Maggi Henderson at Henderson/Hogan, another formidable boutique, and one of Bauman Hiller's main competitors, representing top level actors. Out of their New York children's' department came Yasmine Bleeth, Christine Taylor, and Kevin Connolly. During this time, Fran signed Salma Hayek and booked her in her first-ever English speaking jobs; one of which was the film "Mi Vida Loca." After the death of Maggi Henderson in 1996, Fran became Vice President of the agency and remained there until 2003. Following a short hiatus, Fran resumed her career at GVA, a boutique agency in West Hollywood that represented the likes of Jeff Fahey ("Planet Terror," "Under The Dome," "Machete") Tony Todd ("Final Destination," "Candyman"), Taylor Kinney ("Chicago Fire," "Trauma"). As a manager with GEM Entertainment Group, Fran began her journey into the world of young talent and learned how much she loved working with young people. She continued to cultivate new talent when she went to work for Venture IAB with the mission to expand their youth department. Teaming with Neil Hassman at Hassman Fitzgerald Entertainment in 2014, Fran brought her more than 25 years' experience to represent both established actors and new young talent for film, television, and theatre, as well as unscripted talent. In June of 2015, Hassman Fitzgerald Entertainment became Hassman Tolstonog Entertainment.
