While John Robert Powers has been discovering and developing new talent for movies, TV shows, commercials and modeling careers since 1923 and has worked with legends like Lauren Bacall, Lucille Ball, Henry Fonda, Ava Gardner, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Diana Ross and Grace Kelly, it is only a part of rich John Robert Powers history. We’re extremely proud of JRP Central California's success in inspiring personal development skills that will help middle and high-school students achieve confidence, self-esteem, positive attitudes, great communication skills and personal satisfaction.
