Aussie buys Dayton talent agency

By Amelia Robinson | Friday, February 13, 2009, 07:39 AM

One of Dayton’s largest talent and modeling agencies has been sold to an Aussie.

Veteran Cincinnati-based talent agent Peter Condopoulos has purchased the Roof- Goenner Talent Agency.

Condopoulos, who was born in Australia, will eventually change the name of the firm to the P.C. Goenner Talent Agency.

He bought the agency two weeks ago from Marsha Roof who purchased it in 2003 following founder Jo Goenner’s death.

Roof and longtime talent agent Jim Payne have retired, Condopoulos said.

The agency moved from its Webster Street location Sunday, Feb. 8, and is now temporarily located at 1000 Dutoit St., Dayton.

Condopoulos is considering locating the Dayton office in the Oregon District.

The agency also operates an office in Columbus.
