Contemporary Theatre, Film and Television (CTFT) is a biographical reference series designed to provide students,
educators, researchers, librarians, and general readers with information on a wide range of entertainment figures.
Unlike single-volume reference works that focus on a limited number of artists or on a specific segment of the
entertainment field, CTFT is an ongoing publication that includes entries on individuals active in the theatre, film,
and television industries. Before the publication of CTFT, information-seekers had no choice but to consult several
different sources in order to locate the in-depth biographical and credit data that makes CTFT’s one-stop coverage
the most comprehensive available about the lives and work of performing arts professionals.
