Today. Deraney Public Relations announced that the firm has signed "Mozart In The Jungle" author and Grammy nominee, Blair Tindall.

Ms. Tindall is the author of the book that the hit Amazon series is based on. Created by Jason Schwartzman, the series stars Malcolm McDowell, Bernadette Peters, Lola Kirke, Gael Garcia Bernal and violinist Joshua Bell. Ms. Tindall also serves as a consultant for the show.

Blair has played principal oboe with the New York Philharmonic, San Francisco Symphony, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, and the Orchestra of St. Luke's. In addition, she was the solo oboe chair of the Broadway productions of LES MISERABLES, MISS SAIGON, MAN OF LA MANCHA and ASPECTS OF LOVE.

Recently, Deraney Public Relations added Tony Winner and TV's NASHVILLE Laura Benanti to their client roster.

Based on the critically acclaimed memoir Mozart in the Jungle: Sex, Drugs & Classical Music by Blair Tindall, MOZART IN THE JUNGLE is seen through the eyes of a young oboist, Hailey (Kirke), who tries to navigate through the egos and eccentricities of the renowned New York symphony, and new conductor Rodrigo (Bernal), an enfant terrible whose passion for music threatens the plans of the orchestra's old guard. That old guard is represented by Thomas (McDowell), the reluctantly outgoing conductor, and Gloria (Peters), the chairwoman of the board, who wonder what they have wrought by bringing Rodrigo into the fold. The musicians themselves, a colorful family of disparate personalities, are struggling to deal with this new regime. Along with her friends Alex (played by Vack), a dancer on the brink of success, Cynthia (Burrows), a worldly cellist, and Lizzie (played by Dunne), a world class partier, Hailey searches for what it means to dedicate your life to music.
