Dani Green has owned and operated Dani's Agency since 1987. It is a full service Talent Agency representing actors for feature films, TV commercials, TV movies, industrial films, print ads, etc. and profesional voice talent for TV commercials, industrial films and radio.
Dani currently sits on the Advisory Board to the State Industrial Commission that processes and regulates the private employment agencies in Arizona. Talent agencies fall under this authority in Arizona.
Dani has been a member of and served on several industry Boards of Directors over the years in an effort to maintain a robust film and entertainment industry within Arizona. They include... 602 and Metro Phoenix Film Board which merged and is now the Arizona Production Association. Dani has been on the Executive Board as Secretary for the past two years and was asked by President John Milne to continue through the 2006 calendar year. Other organizations are Media Communications Association International (MCA-I) and the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS).
Prior to opening Dani's Agency she worked as a booking agent for five years at the temporary employment agency, Four Dimensions. When they closed, Dani asked the talent registered with them if she were to open her own talent agency would they sign on. With their encouragement the process began. Because it takes several months (including state administered tests and approvals) to set up an agency, Dani became a Casting Director. Dani's casting resume highlights from the end of 1986 and the beginning of 1987 include...
