Model and Talent Management Agency (MTM) was founded almost three decades ago by Mr. John Casablancas. John Casablancas is the founder of the Elite Model Management Agency, the largest modeling and talent agency in the world. Elite has represented most of the world’s top supermodels. The MTM Agencies were created to serve the graduates of the John Casablancas Modeling and Career Centers and other qualified models and actors/actresses in local markets. Mr. Casablancas created this group of agencies to develop talent on a local basis and then promote that talent to his national and international agencies located throughout the world.
