She's worked with big talent management, in production getting coffee, coordinating schedules for agents, learning from some of the best in the Biz at Innovative and Tribeca Films in NYC.

Michelle Zeitlin interviews Lee Curreri, who played Bruno "the cute, Italian, curly-haired synthesizer player" from the FAME movie and TV series... He talks about making music today and how "It's all about the artist and what the artist wants to say..." His road to the Grammy's Performance on the day of Kobe Bryant's helicopter crash, and his life now making music for other up and coming artists.  Michelle and Lee worked on the TV series together for NBC/MGM TV and then Michelle went off to dance at the Joffrey Ballet School (and eventually the junior ballet company) and Lee did two more seasons as series regular. Joining Michelle and her guest, Lee, are Ryan Jenkins, from the UK (you'll hear him for a bit) and More Zap clients in the performing arts, entertainment, music, publishing and gaming worlds. These triple threats are represented by Michelle with More Zap Productions & Management (www.morezap.com). This is Michelle's first podcast with Passion to Power. Please see (www.passion-power.com) to book Michelle for speaking, coaching, workshops and master classes. "Engage, Enlighten, Entertain..." (MZ)
