The William Morris Agency (WMA) was a Hollywood-based talent agency. It represented some of the best known 20th-century entertainers in film, television, and music. During its 109-year tenure[1] it came to be regarded as the "first great talent agency in show business".[2]
In April 2009, WMA announced it would merge with the Endeavor Talent Agency to form William Morris Endeavor.[3] William Morris Endeavor was renamed WME-IMG in 2013, then Endeavor in October 2017.
