" I had the distinct pleasure to work with Bonnie Lee Bouman on the NBC mini-series “Poseidon Adventure.” Within 5 minutes of the first audition I knew I was working with an artist. Bonnie’s approach to the simple mechanics of the session was even unique. The actors responded, I responded and the usually ordinary manner in which the parts were cast became inspiring. She shot the audition like you would if you were shooting the film. I for one, am a big fan of this and of Bonnie because of it. Bonnie produced for me the best actors that SA had to offer and her eye for talent was impressive. She had a clear understanding of the script and characters and her take on it was superb. Please contact me should you need any more comments about Bonnie. I have nothing but a truckload full....all good! "
