CESD Announces Sam Glick as New Director for Promo/Trailer/Voice-Over Division

CESD Talent Agency’s Los Angeles office announced that Sam Glick, former co-owner of Davis-Glick Productions, will become the agency’s new director for their L.A. Promo/Trailer/Narration/Voice-Over division.

As director, Glick will lead the division in pursuing opportunities on behalf of all CESD Los Angeles voice-over clients in promos for TV, motion picture advertising, and narrative work.

CESD’s partner and head of the Los Angeles division, Paul Doherty stated, “We wanted a real pro for this position, and someone truly connected to those who can make things happen in the P/T/N business and at the same time, be an individual of high integrity and one hell of a salesman. Well, we found these attributes and more in Sam.”

For 21 years, Glick was the co-owner of Davis-Glick, but decided to sell his interests and leave the producing world completely, so he could take on this new challenge.

Upon joining CESD, Glick was quoted as saying, “The opportunity to represent the many talented voices of CESD and work with such a fine group of agents was too good to pass up. I get to call on many familiar faces from my production days — former clients, former competitors, and even my former company–who are now my buyers.

Doherty continued, “Having Sam come to CESD is a true coup. This is the first time I’ve seen a producer of his stature and longevity come into the voice-over agent business. He brings to our company a deep, deep knowledge of our industry and producer and talent relationships that cannot be replicated.”

The arrival of Sam Glick also dovetails with the launch of the CESD’s newly re-vamped agency website (www.cesdtalent.com).

CESD has thirty-four agents in its two offices. It continues its innovative industry dominance through the multitude of changes brought on by the digital millennium.

CESD Talent Agency is one of the nation’s most prestigious performer representation organizations whose unique dimensions include offering performers complete representation for on-camera and voice-over commercials, print/fashion/runway, beauty, dance, hosting, animation and gaming, hosting, puppeteers, promos/trailers/narration, and radio imaging & TV affiliates marketing.

CESD also hosts an industry leading Theatrical/Film-TV Department representing many leading performers including some of the top young stars in America. And for 27 years its Young Talent Department has represented child and teen performers for commercial, voice-over, animation, and print businesses.

CESD was founded 45 years ago in Hollywood by the dynamic legend Bill Cunningham and in 1971, T.J. Escott joined the firm and brought it to nationwide prominence after opening the company’s New York City office and then by becoming company President in 1981. Both Cunningham and Escott are now retired. On January 1, 2005 longtime company executives Ken Slevin and Paul Doherty became partners and Cunningham-Escott-Slevin-Doherty Talent Agency was created. Slevin is the agency’s President and Doherty its Secretary-Treasurer.
