Centenarian William Morris Agency (WMA) is trying to regain some of its youthful vigor. The venerable talent agency (which represented such stars as Clark Gable, Judy Garland, and Marilyn Monroe in its heyday) has added big-name recording artists such as Eminem to its roster of legendary talent. WMA also represents film actors, TV stars (Ray Romano), and athletes (Michelle Wie). A strong literary agency, WMA boasts a handful of agents, including former Random House editor Manny Baron, to increase its client list of authors. The employee-owned agency started in 1898 as William Morris, Vaudeville Agent, by its namesake -- a booking agent in New York City.
