Abstract

The article discusses the work of a movie usher. It explains that movie ushers work at the snack bar, guide guests as they head to their seats and ask for their reservations, greeting them before the film begins, and cleaning the restrooms. Some of the ushers that became famous are Quentin Tarantino, David Caruso, and Vic Damone. Statements from Hannah Joy Long of ArcLight Hollywood are presented. The U.S. Department of Labor said that the median pay for ushers nationwide is 8.35 U.S. dollars per hour.
