A1 ANIMAL TALENT
ABOUT THE OWNER
Cris' love for animals has been a life long endeavor. She started training animals with positive reinforcement at the early age of ten years old. Her passion for them extends to all species: large, small, exotic and domestic. Cris feels fortunate to have been able to parlay that love into a successful and respected business that has been serving Arizona’s animal film needs for over two decades.
A1 Animal Talent agency was established by Nancy Winston and Gerry Kline in the mid 1990s, soon after they were joined by Cris. She was a partner in the company for almost 20 years, and then became the sole owner 10 years ago. Cris was introduced to the film industry in California, by working with large exotics and a variety of other animals under Brian McMillan, who created and owned Hollywood Animals at the time. After a few years she came back to her home in Arizona where she connected with Nancy and Gerry.
Under Cris' leadership, A1 Animal Talent has become the premier supplier of animal talent in Arizona.
