Meet Laura Beckwith
I always knew that I would either be an artist or support them. Throughout my life I have studied and trained in many art forms. My foundation is based in classical training with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, which is one of the top ranking creative arts schools. My love of art history and photography also grew during that time. Not a very good waitress in New York so I worked in dark rooms, was a studio manager, photo assistant, producer, and photo editor. Through these experiences I grew into the role of senior photography agent specializing in advertising, editorial, and catalogue markets world wide.
22 years later I have had the great fortune of working with some of the leading artist management agencies and artists globally. I was the co-founder and managing director of The Garden Party in New York, which was one of the first agencies to recognize multimedia artists and influencers. It went on to achieve international recognition with many of the artists in development becoming leaders in the creative market. I now use my experience in integrated advertising, artist representation, and business affairs to seamlessly assist, organize, and produce. I thrive on being a creative matchmaker and intuitive problem solver. I build teams that mate for life and artists that win awards.
I am a mom to the original Wylder and two rescue dogs in Westchester, New York.
