In this episode, I get to talk with Kirby Howell-Babtiste. If consistently working actor were a meme -- she’d be on it. It’s been inspiring watching her career sky rocket from the moment I met her at a studio I was teaching at, to working together in the ABC SHOWCASE together -- then working on set together on a pilot -- to watching breakdown come across my desk with “Kirby Howell-Baptise” attached to this project. Mind blowing to see her go from submitting on actors access to being repped by CAA, the biggest agency in our industry.
Phew! In this episode we break it all down:
From Submitting on LA Casting to CAA.
“Business Mondays” - How setting aside time every Monday for the business side of Acting set a solid foundation
How she genuinely doesn't believe she's ever lost out on one role
How writing has brought her great empowerment.
How the things that you’ve actually lived through are so interesting and so unique, so varied in what we want to see.The stories you have to tell are way more interesting than half the things than some writers are imagining.
Why not being teachers pets is a WIN!
Why she’s never thought about quitting acting before.
