Act 1 Group is headquarted in Torrance, CA and was founded by Janice Bryant Howroyd. I had the pleasure of hearing Mrs. Howroyd speak recently at the Hope Global Forum and was impressed with how down to earth she was. Although she built a billion-dollar business with only $1,500, she has not forgot her North Carolina roots.  

Act 1 Group is the largest privately held, woman-owned employment firm in the United States! Since 1978, Act 1 has staffed companies around the globe.
