Paradigm is known for family-style representation and strong motion-picture and theatre departments. The agency reps Philip Seymour Hoffman, Billy Zane, Laurence Fishburne and Andy Garcia. And Paradigm’s current headquarters are pretty impressive too: The building, built in 1936, is flanked by Scottish iron gates, and framed by a thirty-foot high marble Ionic colonnade from the Marion Davies estate on the Santa Monica beach. It’s worth a look next time you go to Beverly Hills for a Gagosian opening. The talent agency also operates offices in Monterey, California (huh?), Nashville and New York City. —Margo Fortuny
