Actor's headshots - help!

I made a really great connection today with the owner of an actor's studio - someone I have worked with on another plane in life. In our conversation, she asked what I was doing and I said Photography, besides my day job. She said she'd LOVE to send me the headshot business (whoo hoo) but I don't know the official specs - and I do know there are some. There is some very big potential - enough for me to go sign a lease for a studio very soon. ;-)

Anyone have that info available?

Kathy, as usual lighting is fundamental. I'm not in a position to give specific advice but this is fairly standard stuff (2 to 3 light sources, diffusers, balancing etc.) so find yourself a good book or web tutorial and go for it!

Kathy, intrigued by this, I googled "actor headshot specifications" and came up with a couple of interesting entries. Nothing directly responsive to your question, but some that were close; you might try some more of that sort of thing.

Hey! Taking Don's cue and changing the search to "actor headshot lighting" turns up all sorts of good stuff.

Sometimes those search engines are awfully finicky. Thanks for helping!
