Eddie Winkler
Acme Talent

Eddie Winkler has been involved in the entertainment industry for over 15 years.

He began his adventures at the prestigious Kim Dawson Agency in Dallas, where, recognizing his strengths, Dawson created the Talent Development Department which Eddie successfully headed. Eddie discovered, developed and prepared young actors for placement with Los Angeles based Agents and Managers. One of his discoveries was Travis Tedford who played Spanky in the remake of “The Little Rascals,” and who landed the Welch’s campaign at the age of 9.

In 1997 Eddie felt he had outgrown Dallas and he made the move to Los Angeles, where he has worked at some of the best youth agencies in town – TalentWorks, Buchwald, and currently heads the Youth Department at Acme Talent. He oversees every aspect of the department, including print.
