Marnie Cooper has been teaching acting for the past twenty years.  A former child actor and longtime student of acting herself, Marnie has won much acclaim for her work with children and has been featured on national television and in popular print media.  She has developed her own unique and phenomenally effective way of teaching acting to children and teenagers.  Her students have worked in practically every major motion picture and television series with roles for children over the past two decades and have received many nominations for Emmys, Cable Ace and Tony Awards.  Marnie’s kids work – it’s that simple.

“Marnie Cooper is passionate, knowledgeable and a wonderful teacher.  Her integrity and enthusiasm is exemplary and in the most positive way infectious. She did terrific work day in and day out with the young actors in “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.”
Ron Howard. Director.

“Marnie's book is a  fabulously relevent and perceptive book on the most important elements young actors and thier parents should know about the craft as well as the business of auditioning.I would recommend it to anyone who wants to de-mystify the process of the art and the audition”
Mitchell Gossett, UTA

"Marnie cares so deeply for all her students and their craft. She takes
every component of the material and sharpens it until everything about the scene is effortlessly perfect. I feel so honored to be working with such a creative, warm, kind, and brilliantly talented professional in this
industry. Simply said, Marnie is the best!"
- Allie Grant, Series Regular on Weeds

“Marnie’s insights into the industry are right on the money! A child actor/parent team who carefully reads this book will have a clear advantage over others trying to ‘make it’. There is such a wealth of information on every page, it would be advantageous to read it many times over, as even just one sentence might be the thing that brings a child to a whole new level.”
Paul Armento. Writer/Director/Producer of “The People Garden” ( NYC )

“She’s the ultimate acting coach for children and teens!  You don’t get any better!”
Marilyn Zitner Management.

“I have seen Marnie Cooper prove Svengali-like, eliciting confident, professional performances from young actors.” 
Stephen Schwartz of “Wicked”

“Marnie's just plain awesome! She's very nice and you definitely feel comfortable with her.  She can help you get to a point where you thought you could never go.  She makes coaching fun, and she has a good sense of humor.  We get a lot done in a pretty short time!”
Maxim Knight

“Since my son began coaching with Marnie Cooper, his career has truly blossomed!  Marnie is an EXCEPTIONAL acting coach, inspiring trust and confidence while gently pushing his craft to deeper levels of mastery.  Her instincts are incredible!  She propelled my son to his first Series Regular booking!  She's a top-notch coach at a refreshingly reasonable price, and she always finds time to coach my son despite her full schedule. My son and I both feel that our search for the PERFECT coach is over!”
Laura Knight (Maxim’s mother)
