Dear Toni,

I am a 36-year-old man that is interested in getting back into the acting game. In college I had planned on being an actor. However, I had a young child and needed to make sure I could provide appropriately. I switched majors and became a graphic designer. I have been very successful over the past 12 years in this field.  Just recently, I have been bitten by the acting bug while watching my 10-year-old boy become a very talented and successful, busy working actor. Is this just a silly pipedream or do I stand a chance at getting any work.

Thank you and I look forward to reading a response.
David Jones

Dear David,

I think that we all deserve our dreams.  If this is what you really want to do, then I say go for it. 

Thank you for taking the time to write.
Toni Attell

UPDATE:
David is 38 and has been with me for 2 years now. He has worked very hard and come a long way in a fairly short time. He has just finished his 12th film in the last year, as well as, a couple of commercials and internet projects. Here is a link to his latest short film project.
