Jenelle Riley Deputy Awards and Features Editor David Guglielmo doesn’t have an acting background, but he has an empathy and understanding for actors that serves him – and others – as a casting director.
It might come from his background as a writer/director, which he notes is a form of performance in many ways. “When you’re writing, you’re every character.
