Lesley Silverman is the head of Web3 at United Talent Agency. Before that, she worked in art law. She brings a unique perspective regarding regulation in the art sphere to the agency’s Web3 department, which is proving to be invaluable as the NFT space evolves. A UCLA School of Law graduate, Silverman has likened the NFT space of today to the traditional art world of 2015. Capitalizing on that background, Silverman has helped her clients launch their own Web3 projects. UTA itself has been a big player in the NFT space, having signed Deadfellaz, the NFT collection of 10,000 zombie portraits, and counts heavy-hitters like Larva Labs and Coinbase as clients as well. Silverman’s background and perspective on the NFT community are extremely valuable, and her balance of optimism and caution toward its evolution is one to be admired.
