"To be an interesting actor -- hell, to be an interesting human being -- you must overcome your fears of what people think. In other words, you must be authentic and for you to ever be authentic you must embrace who you really are, warts and all so the real you can show up. Do you have any idea how liberating it is to not care what people think about you? Well, that's what we're here to do because no artist will ever be truly free and blossom into their talent until they rid themselves of all outside opinions and influences." Sanford Meisner
The Meisner Technique Studio, located in San Francisco, California, is one of the most respected and successful professional actor training programs in the world. Jim Jarrett, Sanford Meisner's last teaching protege, founded the Meisner Technique Studio on the same principles, standards and respect for the craft of acting that Sanford Meisner dedicated his life to.

Love that quote from Sandy! Brings back the good ol' days of studying with him! It's good to know that Jim Jarrett has an authentic pedigree. It bothers me that some people who maintain that they teach "The Meisner Technique" have questionable credentials. It concerns me when aspiring young actors ask me who they should study with to learn Sandy's work.
