Social Responsibility
There is a responsibility that falls upon the entertainment industry to portray the world around us as truthfully and honestly as possible. Here at KMR, we strive to do just that.
We don’t shy away from the hard questions – we ask them head on.
DIVERSITY, EQUITY, & INCLUSION
​
KMR’s mission to “portray the world around us as truthfully and honestly as possible,” applies to all clients and employees alike.
Through workshops, town halls, and conversations, KMR strives to stay abreast the changes in an ever-evolving industry both on and off screen.
KMR’s mission for accurate and authentic representation is integral in our company culture and is reflective in our approach with clients.
DIVERSITY DEPARTMENT
To KMR, agenting and advocating go hand-in-hand, and that could not be truer for its Diversity Department. Representing over 500 actors with different physical and cognitive abilities, this department is KMR’s statement to Hollywood and true legacy to the agency.
President Mark Measures remarks: “My ultimate goal is that I don’t want the department to exist. I want everybody to just see actors as actors, so that someday we can eliminate the department.” But until then, KMR’s Diversity Department will continue to fiercely represent their clients in order to get their stories told.
PEOPLE & CULTURE
KMR’s strong foundation is greatly accredited to the people. Our People & Culture department ensures that the people who work at and work with KMR are included and seen.
The department creates initiatives, conducts research, and makes strategies to continue and to develop the culture founded upon authentic collaboration and connection.
OPEN-DOOR POLICY
We understand at KMR that having difficult conversations is the only way to truly change. In 2020, we hosted KMR Town Halls: a space for our clients to talk together about the injustices of our world and how that may translate to an actor’s space in the room, at rehearsal, or on set.
To this day, we still encourage an open-door policy between our agents and clients. If any of our clients are mistreated at a job for any reason, we will continue doing what we do best – working for the actor, ensuring that they have what they need to be safe and comfortable doing what they love.
