The Authentic Actor: the Art and Business of Being Yourself illuminates for today's actors the skills, strategies, and mental approach to navigating the intersection of art and commerce. It's the culmination of Michael Laskin's over forty years in the profession, and thousands of hours of classroom work and private coaching. Today's "Authentic Actor" is someone who has successfully merged their highly developed talent with their fully examined identity. Unfortunately, being talented is no longer enough. Talent is just the "price of admission" in a marketplace where, at the professional level, nearly everyone is talented. Defining, refining, and understanding your indelibility as an actor, your "blink-of-an-eye" factor, is key. Marrying that with highly developed traditional skills is the portal to success and artistry. It's not just show business....it's human business.

Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of ancient Egyptian civilization was its inception from the ground up, as the Egyptians themselves had no prior civilization which they could use as a template. In fact, Egypt itself became a template for the civilizations that followed. The Greeks and the Romans were so impressed with Egyptian culture that they often attributed many aspects of their own culture to the Egyptians. With that said, some minor elements of ancient Egyptian culture were, indeed, passed on to later civilizations. Egyptian statuary appears to have had an initial influence on the Greek version, and the ancient Egyptian language continued long after the pharaonic period in the form of the Coptic language.
