there's another school located in Los Angeles. Acidburn24m ( talk) 04:55, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
There seems to be a tendency by people to add any names to the list just because they were trained by Strasberg, like Al Pacino or Robert DeNiro or Mickey Rourke and others. These veteran actors were trained by Strasberg, but NOT at the school. They received their training at special classes at the Actors Studio in NYC.
There is also the problem of conflating the NYC school with the Hollywood school. The Hollywood school has almost NO notable alumni, with the exception of Angelina Jolie who was in the childrens program for ONE summer. All the notable alumni listed attended NYC, i.e. Alec Baldwin, Rosario Dawson, etc. And that was years ago when the school was still relevant. Today the school is suffering from money problems, scandals, horrible students, etc.

How the heck could Marilyn Monroe be an alumna of this school when she died in 1962 and the school was founded in 1969?! Sbreheny ( talk) 04:12, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
The lengthy list you've provided is defeating the purpose of linking the category at the top of the section. The version I submitted is short, to the point and provides the names of notable alumni that can be recognized at a global scale. Rusted AutoParts 10:54, 26 July 2015 (UTC)
She does not appear to be notable as an actor, and this is where sources frequently discuss her. Also less problematic than merging with her spouse. Star Mississippi 03:50, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
