Client: Irving Fryar

Client Need: Irving wanted his to host his own weekly radio and TV shows, as well as tell his life story in a book and break into acting via a major motion picture. He also wanted to develop a few charitable events per year to help inner city children.

All Star Response: I negotiated a contract with WIP 610-AM for Irving to co-host a weekly show with Howard Eskin. I also negotiated a contract with Comcast Sportsnet for a weekly TV show titled "Angelo & Irving". This was the first Comcast Sportsnet program featuring outside talent, in which I acted as an Associate Producer as well. Moreover, I secured Irving a book deal, and proposed that the book be named, "Sunday is My Day". I also developed a marketing tool to promote book sales. I scheduled a meeting with casting agent Mary Vernieu and director Oliver Stone in Los Angeles and secured Irving a weeklong part in the film, Any Given Sunday. I planned and executed three "Cigar Dinner" fundraisers hosted by Irving, raising over $100,000 for his charity, as well as organized the first two Irving Fryar Golf Tournaments raising over $150,000.
