Lois Zetter was born in Boston, MA on January 6, 1939. She was originally from Pawtucket, RI, daughter of the late Oscar and Pauline Zetter. Lois graduated from Brandeis University cum laude in Theatre Arts and first became a successful actress/singer/comedienne in NYC starring in lead roles in productions including Fiddler on the Roof and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. She appeared with such performers as Joan Rivers, Rodney Dangerfield and Dick Cavett. In 1971, she and her then agent, Bob LeMond, formed LeMond/Zetter Management in Los Angeles. They discovered and managed many Hollywood talents including John Travolta, Patrick Swayze, Katherine Helmond, Mickey Rourke, Mark Harmon, Holland Taylor and Barry Bostwick. They were also involved as producers in such films as Urban Cowboy, Moment By Moment, and Blowout. Lois' success in Hollywood was a tribute to her great intelligence, belief in her artists, fearless negotiating, and clear understanding of the complexity of the film and television industry. As a second career, Lois became an expert and dealer in outsider and self-taught art representing many well known artists and introducing some important new talents as well as establishing a collection that has been exhibited throughout the United States.
