Episode description as stored
Broadway Actress
What does a real Broadway career look like behind the spotlight? In this episode, we talk with actress Lauren Blackman —whose credits include Hello, Dolly! , Anastasia , Lempicka , Ragtime , and The Music Man alongside Hugh Jackman —about the true job behind the dream.
Lauren gives rare career insights into the grind of the theater world: the early-morning audition lines, the union rules that shape every paycheck, the constant cycle of rejections and callbacks, and the electric payoff of making someone in the front row feel seen.
We talk money-making without euphemism—what a “production contract” really means, how union minimums and commissions work, and why even established performers still hustle to keep their health insurance and next role.
If showbiz is your dream, this episode is a must listen!

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.
In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.
During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.
