knowledge and expertise

"...you gave us such amazing people to consider…..and your guidance getting us through the US way of the costing, etc. I enjoyed listening to that round of auditions that you sent over, it’s a real pleasure to hear all the different magic that people bring to the table, and REALLY appreciated the left of field people that were thrown in too - I love that - never know what might pique people’s interest. Casting is my most favorite part of my job here in Australia, it’s so nice to get to relish the process and bathe in the reflected glory of your team’s knowledge and expertise. “

His instincts regarding both the material and the actor are always on the money. He understands how to maximize the creative aspect without sacrificing any of the fun. Harvey IS the man!"

- John Pankow,  Mad About You
