	Modeling Scams - Advance-Fee Talent Services
		Sheila Kuehl was previously known as Sheila James, a child and teen actress, best known as Zelda Gilroy on "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis," one of America's most popular television series from the late 1950s.
		Sheila Kuehl said the law was designed to protect talent from "unscrupulous scam artists." CNN reported the story under the headline "California passes kid actors bill," but the law is not only for kids and actors but also aspiring models of any age.
		Sheila Kuehl admitted there was an unintentional drafting error resulting in a overly broad definition of an advance-fee talent service, which meant some people like modeling photographers were an advance-fee talent service, and therefore would require posting a $10,000 bond.
