Introducing AWS Talent Agency Team

President & Agent

Anthony Straws

Anthony’s love began his entertainment career in 1995 when he started managing his son’s career in print campaigns, TV commercials, and sitcoms in Los Angeles. After working alongside talent and directors for many years, he made the change to start his own Management Company.

Anthony worked in the hospitality industry nearly 20 years. After eleven years working as a Personal Assistant to an A-List Celebrity Hairstylist in Beverly Hills, Anthony decided to go for his dreams in working with recording artist Miki Howard & Crystal Sierra & actors Kaitlen Howard & Cory Walker just to name a few. The calling to be a Manager was too great, and he decided to go back to his heart’s desire of TV, Commercial & Print representation.

Fun Fact: Anthony previously owned a Dollar Store in the Southern California area. He has a son, Dontae Dior, who will be making his way back to the entertainment industry real soon.
