The Legacy
“Named among America's Best Young Entrepreneurs for reinventing how a model agency is built.” BusinessWeek — on founders Barnett & Ellman
Barnett Ellman began in 2007 as two college entrepreneurs with a Flash website, a phone line and a conviction that talent representation could be faster, fairer and more creative. The early b|e models board and the Scene Fashion editorial project earned national press — and a place on BusinessWeek's list of America's Best Young Entrepreneurs.
Two decades later, the agency still runs on the same instinct: find the face before the industry does, develop it properly, and place it with brands that matter.
