Oscars acceptance speeches: Interview in L.A. Times



Last week, I was interviewed by Rebecca Keegan at the L.A. Times about how to give an effective acceptance speech, for an article on celebrity awards season etiquette.

Two of my quotes made it into the article, along with great comments from a media trainer, a photographer, and an etiquette expert. Read it here: Nominees need to be as polished as Oscar himself.

Thank you, Rebecca!
