Peter Benedek
- Talent Agent
- Actor
- Executive
Peter Benedek is one of Hollywood's most powerful and influential
agents, having served in such a capacity for close to 30 years. He rose
to prominence within the Hollywood ranks when he teamed with ex-lawyer
and current talent manager Marty Bauer to form the Bauer-Benedek agency
in 1987. While that agency lasted successfully for over four years,
both Bauer and Benedek decided to form a larger talent agency - and in
1991, the United Talent Agency was born. While Bauer stepped down as
president in 1998 to start his own management outfit, Benedek serves as
CEO of United Talent Agency to this day.
