About Production

The Gersh Production Department has a long history of representing talented department heads and key crew members in the motion picture and television industry. Agency founder Phil Gersh saw value in representing production crew early on when one of his clients, a noted film director, complained that his cinematographer was underpaid and needed his own representation on the deal. This began a new agency business that is carried on today by his son David, and agents Barbara Halperin, Melanie Ramsayer, Laura Brokaw, Marie Perry, and Pattie Sueoka in Los Angeles, and Scott Yoselow and Tara Kromer in New York. In addition to film and television, the department also represents directors of photography, production designers and costume designers for commercial, branded content and music video work.
