Sheila Schulman was an award-winning National Top Ten account executive for Scripps Howard business publications before being recruited into the entertainment business in the mid-1980s, where she worked as head of Private Events Department for Barry Rick Associates agency.

In 1989, after a stint at The Cellar Door Companies, Sheila became a partner in Evans Schulman Productions Inc where she specializes in association & corporate events, commercial property management companies, municipal concert series, festivals, and country clubs.

Sheila has produced many nationally-known touring artists for both indoor and outdoor events.

Michael Evans joined Barry Rick Associates agency as partner in the 1970s, booking traveling show bands throughout
the USA and Canada.

In the early 1980s Mike's partner Barry Rick left the agency to operate a bar/restaurant they bought, leaving Mike to run the 11-person booking office.

Several years later Evans was recruited into The Cellar Door Companies, at that time the country's largest arena and stadium concert promoter.

Although a great learning experience with good friends, Mike missed independence, and so with Sheila Schulman, bought his agency back, to form Evans-Schulman Productions Inc. in 1990.

In the 1980s-90s Mike was a member and elected to the Board Of Directors of the International Theatrical Agents Association.

In the 1980s thru 1990s Mike managed The Clovers (Atlantic Records) whose hits included “Love Potion Number 9”, “Devil Or Angel”, and 12 other charted hits, and The Flamingos (End Records), whose hits included “I Only Have Eyes For You”, “Lovers Never Say Goodbye”, “I'll Be Home”, and several lesser-known.
