More on Kids and the Biz | Your New Hollywood: You Get it! Got it ...

Welcome Back,

Molly Ringwald, Rodney Allen Rippy, Ke Huy Quan, Shirley Temple, Quvenzhan? Wallis and Ayush Mahesh Khedekar

This week we continue our conversation with entertainment attorney, Diane Krausz, regarding children who work in the entertainment industry and child labor laws. Now more than ever, this seems to be a timely subject. Over the course of the past few weeks a number of events regarding minors and the industry have surfaced in the news. We?re not going to focus on those stories, but all signs are pointing to parents and guardians and the need to be even more familiar with child labor laws and Part 186.

Enjoy!
