Money and Tax Advice for Actors with Actress and Tax Pro Elena Campbell-Martinez
It's that time of year again... tax season! Actress and trained tax pro Elena Campbell- Martinez gives her best tax advice for actors on how actors can prepare their taxes and have a better relationship with their money!

In her interview with Lydia Nicole, Elena Campbell-Martinez admits that she did not always have the best relationship with finances. She didn't even want to talk about money since the subject seemed so taboo! But she eventually learned about finances through the Actors Fund, and eventually got trained to help others, especially actors, prepare their taxes. She has some common sense advice to actors about tax deductions, where to find tax help for free, and what they can do to make the tax filing process easier. She even started her own tax business: Drama Free Taxes!
