About SAG
 Screen Actors Guild is the nation's largest labor union representing
working actors. Established in 1933, SAG has a rich history in the
American labor movement, from standing up to studios to break long-term
engagement contracts in the 1940s to fighting for artists' rights amid
the digital revolution sweeping the entertainment industry in the 21st
century. With 20 branches nationwide, SAG represents nearly 120,000
working actors in film, television, industrials, commercials and music
videos. The Guild exists to enhance actors' working conditions,
compensation and benefits and to be a powerful, unified voice on behalf
of artists' rights. SAG is a proud affiliate of the AFL-CIO.
Headquartered in Los Angeles, you can visit SAG online at www.sag.org
