Tom has two sons and lives in Newport Beach, California, and on Lake Coeur d'Alene in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
This new updated and expanded version makes it even more vital to the newcomer’s library. It remains a pragmatic and knowledgeable examination of the basic problem actors face: how to act and eat at the same time.— Charlton Heston
Tom Logan's book, if you really listen to him, can help you through years of productivity. He writes with a sense of humor and knowledge of the fundamentals that are so important – especially to the beginner.— Lucille Ball
FIVE STARS! This book has everything – knowledge, humor, and incredible accuracy. Don't go to another audition before you read it.— Richard Bare, Oscar-nominated director
Very well put together....I found it knowledgeable and only wish I had had some of this information when I was beginning. This book will help to prepare the reader for some of the pitfalls to be faced in show business.
— Debbie Reynolds
