About the Author

Diane Sward Rapaport began offering courses for musicians in music business management and publishing in 1974, after working for seven years as an artist's manager for Bill Graham's Fillmore Management. Her dream was to help musicians overcome the conditioning that had many of them convinced they should starve for the sake of their art.

In 1976, she cofounded, edited, and published Music Works- Manual for Musicians, a magazine hailed as a "bible for musicians" by the San Francisco Chronicle.

In 1979, her book How to Make and Sell Your Own Record was published. It has sold more than 150,000 copies since it was first published in 1979.

In 1988, she founded Jerome Headlands Press, a company which produces, designs, and copublishes books for musicians and artists. Its current catalog includes How to Make and Sell Your Own Recording; The Musician's Business and Legal Guide; The Visual Artist's Business and Legal Guide and The Acoustic Musician's Guide to Sound Reinforcement and Live Recording. The books are published by Prentice Hall.

Her company also provides public relations services for companies that sell pollution prevention and environmental remediation technologies.
