Chris Nassif has been an agent in the entertainment industry for the past 27 years.  During that time he has represented actors, directors, producers, editors, and has packaged many television and feature film projects.

Chris’s business philosophy is to help clients broaden their expertise into new areas of the entertainment industry. He has set up production companies, crossed music stars into television and film, and helped writers to become successful directors.  In February of 2000 he decided that he wanted to expand his representation abilities more broadly than the traditional talent agency model.  He changed the name of his agency called C.N.A. and formed Diverse Talent Group, Inc. the company is based in Century City and has 15 employees.

Diverse Talent has been consistently recognized as one of the best talent and literary agencies since its inception by being named as one of the Top 15 agencies by the Los Angeles Business Journal. 

Diverse Talent Group represents actors and directors on leading primetime television shows including Lost, 24, House, Bones, Wildfire, Prison Break, Deadwood, NCIS, Criminal Minds, and previously Seventh Heaven, Charmed, One Tree Hill, and Las Vegas. He also has negotiated deals for soap stars on leading daytime shows such as The Young and the Restless, General Hospital and Days of Our Lives. Diverse Talent Group clients have also booked lead roles in feature films such as Dreamgirls, Welcome to America, The Flock and Transformers.

With the expansion of the talent agency, more divisions were created, including a commercial division, youth department, music division and television packaging department. The company also continues representing below-the-line talent including editors and costume designers. The commercial department books actors on major national spots for companies such as McDonald’s, Honda, Kraft, AT&T, Sprint, Bell South, Verizon, T-Mobile, Microsoft, Time Warner, Burger King, and NYSE.
