“24″ Casting Director in Australia

Did fearless Los Angeles casting director Debi Manwiller (partner of Pagano/Manwiller) of “24″, 2 time Emmy winner and mother of 3 think she was Jack Bauer? After arriving in Sydney at 7:00am last Friday, she was on top of the Harbour Bridge by noon!

And this was just the start of her Sydney expedition! Saturday, in North Sydney she conducted a question and answer seminar for close to 150 Sydney actors and in the afternoon lead a master class for some of Australia’s finest.

Bet Jack Bauer could not do that after a 15 hour flight form Los Angeles.
