“My first week after Mary Lynn’s class, I auditioned for a new iPad app for Scholastic…BOOKED IT!  My next audition was to play several characters for a new video game for Pitt Stop…BOOKED IT!  Then I auditioned for Optimum Cable, tv commercial…..BOOKED IT!  If it didn’t happen to me, I wouldn’t believe it!!  Mary Lynn’s technique has completely changed the way I approach copy.  She is amazing and her class was a blast.  I learned more in her one day  workshop than any other class or coaching session I’ve been to in the 7 years I’ve been in the business.  She is a MUST for anyone that wants to better their booking rate.  Can’t wait to attend again!                                                Talia Gonzalez, NY
It was worth the year long wait to take a workshop with you.  I believe it is critically important to know what “I don’t know”.  Your direction on finding the twist, especially for my deep voice, was invaluable.
Chet Zaslow., NYC
