ARTISTS by Timothy Priano is a premiere agency with a roster comprised of world renowned hair stylists, make-up artists, wardrobe stylists, and manicurists.

 

In 1981, Timothy Priano began his career as a hair and makeup agent while working with esteemed hairstylists Garren and Thom Priano. After successfully managing their careers while elevating their profiles, Timothy decided to open his own agency, ARTISTS by Timothy Priano, in 1986. A Los Angeles division of the agency opened in 2000.

 

Timothy's reputation as an agent that protected his talent while pushing them to the next level immediately attracted such luminaries as Laura Mercier, Oscar Blandi and Francois Nars. His work with these highly regarded artists led to the representation of such revered and respected talent as Elle and Brigitte Reiss-Andersen. Over the years, the agency has cultivated and elevated the careers of Matin, Gina Viviano, Denise Markey and Tina Turnbow, among others.

 

In 2006 after successfully running offices in both New York and Los Angeles, the agency joined forces with Jane Stewart Laidlaw of Chicago's Stewart Talent Agency. By combining Timothy's expertise in building the world's most established hair and makeup stars with Jane's Midwestern contacts, they were able to dominate the Midwest. This relationship led to a 2006 merger with WHO IN Canada and their international territories in Paris and London.
