I entrusted, on behalf of Peter Yarrow and my other partners in the
series of prime time specials I produced, all rights to those shows
that we all poured our hearts into. Bill did all that he promised and
more. He vigorously pursued all possible outlets, handled himself with
his usual professionalism and his checks cleared!
All in all, a wonderful job. I intend to do further business with Bill.

Re: "Man of the Year" starring John Ritter
Dear Bill:
With the release of my feature film “Man of the Year” achieved through
your good efforts, I am pleased to let you know my thoughts on your
process and the results.
Rarely do I encounter anybody as conscientious about their
follow-through as I am about mine. You laid out a plan, you proceeded
to execute the plan in an orderly fashion, things worked about pretty
much the way you said they would, we secured a deal we were happy
with, and we were paid and have received reports per contract in a
timely fashion.
Your whole approach was, as you described it from the beginning:
“transparent” and completely as advertised. Your thoroughness was
refreshing. You did what you said you were going to do.
We are very happy with the results of your marketing efforts on behalf
of our film thusfar, and there will be two additional outcomes from
your efforts. First, I look forward to finding additional reasons for
us to do business together in the future on new projects. Second, and
perhaps more important to you, I am happy to report that I will be
recommending you to my friends and associates with films for
distribution, as I feel that you will take good care of them as well.
Referring business to you is, in my book, perhaps the highest
complement I could pay you.
I am very much looking forward to continuing our business relationship
far into the future.
Sincerely,
Straw Weisman

Re: Julie Andrew's "The Singing Princess"
To whom it may concern:
I am writing this letter regarding William Schwartz who I call a real
find in the entertainment media.
He not only accomplishes everything he says he will but he is honest
too. Everything he says he will do he does. He is unwavering in his
support for a deal he likes and will pursue it to its conclusion.
I cannot say enough good things about his work ethic.
Sincerely,

Re: Happily Ever After
FIRST NATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT CORP.
8150 W. 111th St, Suite 9, Palos Hills, Illinois 60465
To Whom It May Concern:
Subject: Business Relationship
It has been our pleasure to work with Mr. Bill Schwartz. We are a
publicly listed entertainment company, which employed Mr. Schwartz to
assist us in finding a marketing and distribution company for one of
our Movies. This was after several years of frustration in trying to
accomplish this ourselves and also employing other people. We found
Bill to be both professional and diligent in assisting us in the
search for a proper partner. He went above and beyond in holding our
hand in the negotiating process, allowing us to pick and choose from
several offers. This I believe allowed us to maximize the best
possible deal. He kept us informed during all aspects of the search,
and was unrelenting in obtaining funding at the earliest possible date.
We have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Schwartz and his company to
anyone whom has need of his services.
Respectfully yours,
Charles E. Nootens
