 PROFILE
Centenarian William Morris Agency (WMA) is trying to regain some of its youthful vigor. The talent agency (which represented such stars as Clark Gable, Humphrey Bogart, and Marilyn Monroe in its heyday) is restructuring its motion picture division to compete better with rivals Creative Artists Agency and International Creative Management. WMA has relied on the strength of its music and TV division (Whitney Houston, Bill Cosby) for the last couple of decades; it also represents authors, athletes, and comedians, as well as various corporations. The employee-owned agency was started in 1898 as William Morris, Vaudeville Agent, by its namesake -- a booking agent in New York City.
