Mara Santino will be auditioning talent from TRU Talent Management in Salt Lake City, UT on June 13th.

Mara has developed the careers of many young actors, and loves to scout new talent. She has put many of her clients on such shows as Hannah Montana, Suite Life of Zack & Cody, Drake & Josh, Zoey 101 and many more Disney and Nickelodeon shows. Mara has also groomed actors for big studio films, most notably
put Brandon Routh in "Superman Returns" and has groomed the careers of three of the lead actors in "Twilight."

After attending Point Park College/Pittsburgh Playhouse as a theatre major, Mara moved to Hollywood 19 years ago to pursue an acting career. Within two months, she accepted a receptionist job at one of the top commercial agencies, Kazarian, Spencer & Associates (formerly known as Joseph, Heldfond & Rix.) Within two weeks, she was the owner's assistant. Over the years, Mara was promoted to a print agent, then commercial agent, and eventually worked her way up to television/film agent. "As an agent, I have groomed a lot of young actors for CAA, ICM and William Morris who are now movie stars."
