Rotbart-Torres Entertainment

Rotbart-Torres Entertainment is a personal management/production company specializing in the Latin market. Also based in Los Angeles, their client roster is comprised of Hispanic actors/actresses, writers, directors, producers, and stand-up comics.

Nielsen recently stated that Hispanic TV homes are growing at a faster rate compared to total US TV homes and Geraldo Rivera's new book The Great Progression: How Hispanics Will Lead America to a New Era of Prosperity further emphasizes this fascinating impact that the Latin market is making on the social, economic, and political climate of the United States. Hispanics' involvement in society is at an all-time high- and growing exponentially.

The time is important for Latinos and diversity talent to excel and Robart-Torres Entertainment is dedicated in continuing that change. Along with a myriad of duties, including advising the addition of Latin talent to current programs and introducing talent for future development, the company is very connected to the Latino community and called upon daily to advise on casting, production, and other management issues.

Heidi Rotbart and German-Michael Torres were part of one of the first and only management/production companies at a major studio to specifically create Latino themed television programming. They continue to recognize the power of diversity and lead the market with their exceptional clients.
