Excerpts from Dustin Hoffman's letter of recommendation - July 18, 1983
"After knowing Jack Waltzer for many years as
a Professional actor and teacher, and having attended his acting classes in
New York City numerous times, I chose his acting class to appear in my film
Tootsie because his work
represented for me the best of American acting techniques.
I feel it would be most valuable for any professional actor to have the opportunity
to study and work with Jack Waltzer."

Excerpts from Sigourney Weaver's letter of recommendation - September 25, 1998
"I have worked with acting coach Jack Waltzer
since 1994. Jack's script breakdown techniques and his innovative exercises
have completely revolutionized the way I prepare for a film. Our work together
deepens and personalizes each scene in profound ways, thus allowing me to
truly let go and become another person in the imaginary world of the film.
I arrive on set completely prepared and raring to go.
Jack is the best acting teacher I have ever known - the only good one
in my opinion. He is inspiring, practical and discreet. I can not recommend
Jack Waltzer more highly. He is "THE MAN"

Excerpts from Roman Polanski's letter of recommendation - June 28, 2000
"I used Jack Waltzer's expertise on several
motion pictures and plays I directed. He helped me immensely coaching the
beginners as well as the experienced and accomplished actors.
Jack Waltzer is the only no-nonsense acting teacher I know and recommend.
His classes are fascinating. I like to pop in as a sort of "guest student"
just to learn some more.
In preparing an actor for a performance he knows how to build a character."
