Hello, my name is Hunter Nash-Glickman. I am a seventh grade student at Gulliver Acadamy in Miami, Florida. In English class, I was assigned a project in which I have to choose a career and to a report on it; i chose entertainment law. If you’d be so kind as to help me with my report by answering a few questions, I would really appreciate it. Thanks again,
Hunter Nash-Glickman
