The Emissary Crew
  • Liz Baugher

    liz@emissaryartists.com

    Emissary by day,
    Matriarch by night

    Emissary [ˈɛməˌsɛri]
    1. One designated as the agent of another: representative
    2. A secret agent

    As our fearless leader and rep extraordinaire, Liz promotes Emissary’s troop of talented image-makers in quest of fame, fortune and critical acclaim. Always on duty, she can be found after hours in enthusiastic support of her three boys at concerts, Cubs games and water polo matches.

  • Matthew Baugher

    matthew@emissaryartists.com

    Slugabed by day,
    Singer/Songwriter by night

    Slugabed [ˈslʌɡ əˌbɛd]:
    1. A person who stays in bed after the usual or proper time to get up.

    With the perfect hours for a performing singer/songwriter, Matthew is an integral cog in the wheel of Emissary’s portfolio management division. Off the clock, he enjoys the accompaniment of his Chicago-based indie-rock band, Inchworm. No stranger to late nights, Matthew is most often found with his sweet enchantress: Music.

  • Stacey Kubis

    Accomplice by day,
    Time Traveler by night

    Accomplice [əˈkɒmplɪs]
    1. Someone who works with another to get something done. A person who helps another carry out some plan; partner in crime.

    Stacey keeps everyone in check. When she’s not guiding Emissary with her organizational and marketing prowess, she can be found navigating the mean streets between city and suburbs, balancing her thoughts between traffic reports and inner road rage before getting home to conjure up new recipes.

  • Tonya Underwood

    tonya@emissaryartists.com

    Liaison by day,
    Cookie by night

    Liaison [ˈliəˌzɒn]
    1. Communication or cooperation that facilitates a close working relationship between people or organizations.

    Coming to an agency near you, Tonya is the captivating link between art and creative brilliance. When she is not alluring the world to Emissary’s artists, she enjoys making a mess in the kitchen, relaxing with a glass of wine and catching up on the latest news of the day.

about

Having spent 20 + years as an artist’s agent, I have learned that life is too short and too hard to not love what you do and most importantly, who you do it with. That is why I have made it a priority at EMISSARY to not only represent the highest caliber talent, but also people that are great to work with.

I believe 100% in each and every one of the artists that I have the pleasure of representing, both personally and professionally. I can say without hesitation that you will get all of their passion, creativity and experience on each and every project.

In addition, I believe that the Agency-Agent relationship never needs to be adversarial. At the end of the day, we are all on the same team and have the same goals – to do great work together and keep you and your clients wanting to work with us. EMISSARY is always committed to finding a win-win solution for every project and making the process enjoyable at the same time.
