While stage managing many of the mainstage productions at the University of
Florida, Kimberly became fascinated with the process of an actor attaining a role.
She sat in every audition right alongside the director—hearing his thoughts and
reactions to the talent at hand. This was the beginning of her journey into casting!
After her junior year of college, Kimberly spent the summer in New York City
interning for renowned Broadway casting director Tara Rubin. Post graduation, she
moved right back up to the city to intern for casting powerhouse, Bernard Telsey
of Telsey + Company casting. Later, as the commerical casting apprentice, she ran
sessions for such companies as Apple, Macy’s, and Target. When the city life kept
her too far from family and loved ones, Kimberly decided to make the big move back
to her home town of Atlanta to take part in the huge television and film industry
boom of the Southeast. She could not be more thankful for the Fincannons in taking
a chance on her casting chops!

With over 125 feature films, more than 200 episodics, 125 movies of the week, 6 Mini-series, 3 Primetime Emmy Awards, and hundreds of commercials, casting "On Location" is what we love to do, and the South is our favorite place to do it. As a company, we've cast in over a dozen countries and throughout the United States. While we love the South, we take great pride in the quest to suss out natural talent in any locale.
On June 10, 1983 Frank Capra, Jr. visited Wilmington, North Carolina on behalf of Dino DeLaurentis to scout locations for their next movie. We were there, and we've been casting in the southeast ever since.
In 1999, in response to the Louisiana film incentive, we adopted New Orleans as our second home. The atmosphere that is NOLA serves as a thick, wonderful, and rich talent source.
In 2009, we added Atlanta. Our Georgia office provides us with a central Seaboard location to reach out to talent both North and South of the Peach, creatively doubling the talent pool from which we draw.
