The newspaper report set out the details of her career:

Born March 22, 1987, and raised in Sherman Oaks, Solters joined Scoop in 2012 and represented clients including the Hollywood Bowl, the Kia Forum and the Music Forward Foundation. Among Scoop’s other clients are the Eagles, John Mayer and Dead & Company; Solters’ late grandfather, Lee Solters, who died in 2009, was a well-known showbiz figure who repped superstars such as Barbra Streisand, Frank Sinatra and Michael Jackson.

Before turning to publicity, Maxie Solters graduated from the University of Southern California with a theater degree and worked in film and television casting in L.A.; she was also an actor and SAG member who appeared in theater productions and in a comedy web series that she created and produced.
