FORD/Robert Black Agency

I went to an open call that was a pleasant and organized experience. Nothing happened for a month but eventually I had a face to face meeting with the owner, Sheree Hartwell. She enlightened me with her view of the business and I found her candor and humor valuable. I studied up on her background of being in the business starting at age 11 and evolving into acting. The eventual roll on running the show and being behind the camera was of the most interest. She signed me that day but not before explaining the long path of learning was revealed and I accepted. The path has been challenging but fun. Intriguing even and she has been supportyiithe entire way. Very happy to be with Ford

After 10 Years at FORD (& numerous National commercials), they have dropped me as a client via email at 3p. At 3:02p I was dropped from the website, at 3:03p they blocked me on IG, at 3:09p I was dropped on Actors Access. ALL because I have refused to sign their shoddy Covid Contract. A contract my union SAG/AFTRA told me NOT to sign. A contract NO OTHER agencies are asking their clients to sign. Mind you, I was told we are all apart of the “FORD FAMILY” Family? Is this how a family treats one another? (Note: This contract waives ALL your rights as an actor/model. It does not even cover basic production insurance if a 2k light falls and hits you in the head.) You’ve been WARNED.

Does anyone know that's part of this agency knows it really helps people that want to conquer their passions in acting and modeling ?

Great people and Arizona's top talent!

Grateful for this company! Strong team all around.
