Al Onorato made a special appearance at the SAG-AFTRA Nevada Local Conservatory on April 27 to talk about his experiences as a manager. He also advised actors on what managers do for their talent and the traits, skills and education managers look for when signing an actor to represent. He took time to learn about each attendee, and also watched and coached several monologues. 

Al Onorato is currently a partner at Unified Management. Prior to this, he was vice president in charge of talent and casting at Columbia Pictures Television, among other credentials.
