knowledge of the modeling and fashion
industry.

When
I first started in the business, a name that
kept surfacing everywhere was
Paul Fisher!
All I heard was what a gift he had for
developing and creating stars and how much
respect everyone in the modeling world had
for him. After finally meeting him and
knowing him for many years, I understood
what they were talking about! Bleu Model
Management is very excited to have Agent
Training Network's top students intern at
our office in
Beverly Hills . With Paul's years of
experience in the business and the education
that he will provide, I am certain we will
see an amazing group of talent.

Paul
Fisher has been a dear friend to me since
the early 90's. He has always sustained the
utmost respect in the modeling world and it
comes as no surprise to me. Paul is among
the few in this industry that has the
talent, ability and experience to teach
without teaching. Suzie Sugerman, a top
agent of mine, was taught by the best...
Paul Fisher.

MIAMI
One
of the best in this industry… I was the
first agency on
South Beach in 1979 and I have worked
with the best. Paul Fisher is one of the
“best“. Paul and I have been working
together since he arrived on the scene in
modeling business. He has discovered many
super-stars in modeling and in acting and
not many agents today can say that. He has a
great eye for talent and I would be happy to
work with him and Agent Training Network.
What a fun place Miami Beach would be for
the interns!!!

I
have known
Paul Fisher since 1984 and have
always considered him one of the agents that
I learned my craft from. He was so far ahead
of his time in the industry and helped put
Page Parkes on the map! I would work to find
new faces for Paul and we would work
together to make top working girls during
that time. There has never been a place to
learn this industries tricks of the trade
and now there is ...by one of the best that
work as an agent ....
Paul Fisher! I would
be happy to have his grads to interview for
an internship for Page Parkes Management.

Paul
Fisher has been an exceptional agent and
scout for
more than twenty years - developing
some of the industry’s most noteworthy
talent. As a successful agent, Paul
accurately communicates the needs and unique
aspects of this business to new comers. He
is definitely filling a much needed niche by
creating a training program for agents. If
any one can create a new generation of great
agents...Paul Fisher can! We are delighted
to have Agent Training Network’s top
graduates intern at our agency.

innovative initiative.

“Working
with Paul Fisher at IT Models opened doors
that I never thought possible. Paul taught
me everything about scouting, developing,
negotiating, booking and marketing. If a
model was handled by Paul, her career went
farther, faster and longer than their peers.
Thanks to Paul, I went on to work for NY and
LA agencies including Next Model Management
and LA Models. My career began 16 years ago
with Paul Fisher. What a lucky day for me
and the many supermodels he represented.”
Stasia

"Paul Fisher, trained me as a booker in
the print world and was one of the most
ingenious men in the biz... from the look of
the girl to getting them started in the
industry. I still have him as my mentor and
anyone else who has trained under him think
highly of all the accomplishments he has
done."
Mary Joe Geddes, GO Models
& Talent
"I
have worked with many agents in my time, but
no one compares to the perfect skills of
Paul Fisher. He is truly an icon in this
business, and no one knows the modeling
business better than Paul. I have seen
him take a girl with 4 Polaroid's and turn
her into a star. I have seen him put a
portfolio together like artwork. I have seen
him charm clients into booking whomever he
tells them too. I have been in the business
over 15 years. I have been sought out by all
the top agencies in the business, why?
Because I am great agent...and because I was
trained by Paul Fisher. When ever I tell
people that I was started by Paul, they
understand that I came from the best school
of agents. To this day I remember everything
he has taught me. If everyone followed his
rules there would be a lot better agents out
there. It's a fact...the best agents in the
business worked and were trained by
Paul
Fisher."
Suzie Sugerman,
Code
Management
"Paul
Fisher is a truly amazing agent. Not only
did he take my career to the next level
where I was able to do campaigns such as
Vassarette, editorial for American
Cosmopolitan and working with a fantastic
team of people whom I am still friends with
to this day. Paul Fisher is an excellent
negotiator. He gets the deals done and he is
tough when he needs to be and he is still
very nice to you as a model and this balance
is a very difficult balance to maintain.
Paul Fisher maintains this balance with
ease. There is no better agent in the
business to learn from than
Paul Fisher. He
is what every model wishes an agent could be
like."
Virginia Graham
Paul
Fisher is a remarkable person and one of the
most talented agents in the business. His
exceptional humor and strong negotiating
skills made working with him both fun and
rewarding. Under his agency and management,
I modeled in many European editorials of top
tier publications such as Italian Vogue and
French Elle. Paul is well respected and
connected in the industry and I can’t think
of anyone better to learn from than him.
Pamela
Cook
Working
with Paul Fisher at the Los Angeles office
of It Models, was probably one of the most
exciting, and rewarding experiences I have
ever had. Paul's determination and eye for
the spectacular was incredibly inspiring. I
have taken everything I have learned from
Paul and applied it not only in business,
but personally as well. Strength, nerve,
negotiation, and a wicked sense of humor...
valuable tools you should never be without.

During my
sixteen-year period representing models,
talent, and artists, I had worked with and
alongside, many professionals within the
industry--specifically other agents. Shortly
after my inception into "the business" I was
extremely fortunate in having the
opportunity to work for
Paul Fisher. Truly,
I learned more from Paul than I did from all
the other agents combined during my tenure
in the industry. About
Paul Fisher...one of
his own greatest talents and skills as an
agent, I believe, is not derivative of only
what he knows instinctively and by way of
experience, but largely due to his
unstopping ability to get others interested.
Paul is dynamic and he has a "gift" in
teaching and inspiring those around him.
Many owners of agencies sit behind a big
desk behind a closed door acting and falsely
appearing important. Paul was always, and I
mean always, "hands-on", and "in the mix",
of everything...every client (ad agencies,
photographers, editors, designers, casting
agents, directors, etc.) and every model and
talent (new and established, "stars" and
potential "stars.") Working for, and with,
Paul Fisher
was a great and memorable period
in my career and life. Following (and
during) my years with
Paul Fisher, I was
pursued countless times by competing
agencies. Eventually I went on to work at
Wilhelmina. I headed the women's division and
then served as the Agency Director of
Wilhelmina's west coast office for nearly a
decade.
Miya Barrager.

I was fortunate to
begin my career in the fashion industry
working for Paul Fisher. Paul taught me the
ins & outs of talent development,
negotiation, branding & marketing. Paul
showed me how to think outside of the box,
beyond the immediate and how to successfully
develop an artist career, not just make them
money but how to insure their earning power
and position in the industry for years to
come. More importantly, Paul helped me to
realize my own personal skills and worth;
all of which gave me the solid foundation to
open my own PR & Marketing Firm.
