Nancy Bishop, an Emmy Award-nominated casting director, has made a significant impact in the industry despite being a native of New England. Her professional journey began in the mid-1990s when she relocated to Europe, where she has been based ever since.
Prior to her work as a casting director, Bishop pursued a career in theatre direction, serving as the artistic director of the Black Box Theatre Company in Prague. This experience not only honed her skills as a director but also laid the foundation for her future success as a freelance casting director.
As a member of the Casting Society of America (CSA),Bishop has had the opportunity to work on a wide range of film and television projects internationally. Her expertise in casting has earned her a reputation as a respected professional in the industry.
In addition to her work as a casting director, Bishop is also an accomplished coach, providing guidance and support to actors seeking to improve their craft. Her wealth of knowledge and experience have been distilled into two books published by Bloomsbury: "Auditioning for Film and TV" and "Secrets from the Casting Couch: On-Camera Strategies for Actors from a Casting Director."
