Beyond the Runway: Creating Transparency in the Modeling Industry Impossible Things Before Breakfast

    • Entrepreneurship

In this 9th episode, Cara Nava interviews Marie P. Anderson, model industry expert, author, public speaker  and co-founder of Boss Babe Models.  Anderson has over three decades of experience with the top model agencies around the globe. We explore the “roses and the thorns” of her experiences ranging from haute couture photo shoots for Vogue Magazine, working with Valentino himself in Rome to being a pioneer in seeking industry reform and advocacy for models long before the #MeToo movement.
In this episode, we discuss Marie’s fight against sexual impropriety, the ever-changing model industry landscape and the importance of advocacy and improved work culture for women and models at large.

Special Guest Information:
After over 30 years of scouting and placing models with top agencies and later starting her own agency (which she later sold to Ford Models), Marie was ready to change the game. She was tired of seeing confident young models be scammed by multiple agents and other industry creatives by the harsh industry standards that said, “you’re not good enough.”
Through her courses and private coaching, Marie shows aspiring models how to build a successful modeling career without compromising their values. She provides coaching in all areas of their careers including personal branding, mentorship, portfolio prep, agency recommendations and placement. Today Marie P. Anderson is a mother agent, is a black belt in Shidokan Karate and teaches women’s’ self-defense.
