A3 Artists Agency has signed social influencer and diversity advocate Brandon Farbstein.
Farbstein was diagnosed with a rare form of dwarfism called metatropic dysplasia at age two, and battled severe cyberbullying in high school. A3 says he subsequently harnessed his condition in a bid to empower and influence the world by championing equal rights for women, people of color, the LGBTQ+ community, and people living with disabilities.
He was even the driving force behind two pieces of legislation that were eventually signed into law in Virginia: one on bullying prevention and another requiring emotional intelligence courses be taught statewide.
Farbstein has garnered 224,000 Instagram followers on the strength of his motivational speaking and lifestyle content. He has also written a self-help book titled Ten Feet Tall, and has collaborated with brands like Facebook, HP, and Marriott. In 2020, Farbstein made his runway debut at New York Fashion Week for Tommy Hilfiger.
