Joyce Selznick (February 12, 1925 – September 17, 1981) was a talent agent, manager, casting director, and screen writer for actors and musicians. She was the niece of film producer David O. Selznick (Gone with the Wind, 1939), providing her with early exposure to the industry. Her career spanned three decades and began with her discovery of Tony Curtis in the late 1940s, climaxing with the casting of The Buddy Holly Story, released in 1978. Selznick helped George C. Scott, Faye Dunaway, and Candice Bergen begin their careers. In the late 1940s, she discovered a New York truck driver named Bernie Schwartz and developed him into a matinee idol who took the name Tony Curtis.
