Bill Hufsey
Billy Hufsey is an internationally renowned performer who has been one of the few to maintain a highly successful career in multiple facets of the entertainment industry over four decades. He has masterfully embraced the art of re-invention and ceaselessly strives to achieve his goals and dreams every day. Within the last year alone Billy Hufsey maintained successful coaching businesses in both Las Vegas and Los Angeles, starred in the Lifetime network reality docu-series "Raising Asia", released two original singles one of which ("The Lover in Me") finished the year two weeks in a row charting at #7 on the A/C Hot 200, released a new motivational/auto-biographical book called "Living the Dream" and headlined a live variety show on the Las Vegas strip at Planet Hollywood.

After five years of being a primary star on the immensely successful, and culturally groundbreaking NBC show "Fame," which won two Golden Globes and nine Primetime Emmys, Billy Hufsey starred for four years on the Soap Opera, "Days of our Lives." As a live performer, Billy has thrilled thousands at sold-out concerts here and abroad and has starred in multiple Broadway shows. Billy has also performed with legendary artists such as Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, Carol Burnett, and Janet Jackson just to name a few.

As a Performance Coach (acting, vocals, public speaking and stand-up) and Personal Manager, through Billy Hufsey Management, Billy has trained, mentored and guided many of today's stars throughout various avenues of the complex world of the entertainment industry. To date, Billy has coached clients in booking over 250 different roles on television and film projects.

As an extension of his highly successful mentoring and coaching programs, Billy Hufsey is taking the message of his book, "Living the Dream" on the road through public speaking engagements. He shares his personal experiences of overcoming obstacles (health, homelessness), maintaining a positive mental attitude (through insurmountable adversity) while being open to the art of reinventing himself to achieve continued success. Through sharing his Seven Key Principles for Success as outlined in his book, Billy Hufsey is on a mission to inspire others to Live the Dream that he once lived. And still lives today.
