You won't find a phone number where you can actually speak to him.
Would you settle for a business mailing address or contact information
for an agent or manager perhaps?

I would prefer a direct contact (I believe there is no legal
consequence for Tom Cruise, but I hope he can assist my friend) - but
if after say one week that is not available, I would consider this
answered by the first person who gave me his agent's name address and
phone details (I believe it's Tom Cruise's sister).

Thanks

Actually it isn't. But I do have his actual agent's name, address,
phone and fax numbers. I also have the physical address to Mr.
Cruise's business office where he often represents his own interests.
Let me know if this is suitable to post now.

Lee Anne Mapother, Tom's sister, is indeed a publicist working to Tom
Cruise's company but she is NOT his personal agent.

I now have several points of contact compiled including (among others)
the name, phone and address of his actual publicist and that of his
attorney.

It should also be noted that by policy we wouldn't be able to provide
you with his personal contact information even if we did have it, as
we are not allowed to divulge personal information about individuals.
His business contact information on the other hand is the best we can
provide (and exactly what I now have).

As I understand it, Tom Cruise's sister is his appointed agent. Though
I don't have contact details - yes all the stuff you have would
constitute an answer.

Thanks

Dear justed-ga;

Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting
question. As I said there is no way for us to provide you with Tom
Cruise?s telephone number because we can?t use our service to divulge
private information about people?s private lives. However, since he is
a public figure we can provide information related to his business
activities.

Tom Cruise undoubtedly gets hundreds of thousands of calls and letters
each year. The best way to contact him would be through his business
offices and associates. He is said to represent his own business
interests to some extent from this office:

Tom Cruise
14755 Ventura Boulevard #1-710
Sherman Oaks, CA 
91403-3672

(Hint: This may or may not prove productive, but you might try
addressing the letter to ?Tom Mapother?. This happens to be his "real"
name and since he presumably gets a LOTS of mail, he might just open
YOUR letter, addressed thusly, out of sheer curiosity.)

. . . . . . . 

There are of course some addresses AND telephone numbers you can try:

Tom Cruise is professionally represented by agents of Creative Artists
Agency, Inc. His agents (he has several with the same agency) are:

Kevin Huvane, Victoria Metzger and Rick Nicita  

These agents can be contacted at: 

Creative Artists Agency, Inc.  
9830 Wilshire Blvd 
Beverly Hills, CA 
90212 

Phone: 310-288-4545 
FAX: 310-288-4800

. . . . . . . 


Mr. Cruise?s publicist is Pat Kingsley, of PMK/HBH PUBLIC RELATIONS.
She can be contacted here:

Pat Kingsley
PMK/HBH
8500 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 700
Beverly Hills, CA 
90211

Phone: 310-289-6200

Lee Anne Mapother, Tom Cruise?s sister, is merely his employee. She
works as a publicist for Cruise's company marketing his productions,
memorabilia, etc, but is NOT his personal publicist. As mentioned
above, that responsibility officially lies with Pat Kingsley, who in
turn works for an outside, contracted agency, PMK/HBH.


. . . . . . . 

One of the nation?s leading entertainment attorneys, Bertram Fields,
of the business and entertainment law firm, ?Greenberg Glusker Fields
Claman Machtinger & Kinsella LLP?, represents Mr Cruise?s legal
interests. You can contact him here:

Greenberg Glusker
1900 Avenue of the Stars 
21st Floor 
Los Angeles, CA 
90067 

Phone: 310-553-3610
Fax: 310-553-0687

Hello tutuzdad.ga

As far as I know, Pat Kingsley is no longer Tom Cruise's publicist -
he recently left Pat and appointed his sister Lee Ann Devette .

see ....   http://www.observer.com/pages/story.asp?ID=8826 

Do you have her contact details? 

Thanks

Ed

Clarification of Answer by tutuzdad-ga on 10 Jul 2004 08:40 PDT
You are indeed correct. Lee Anne DeVette did replace Pat Kingsley as
Tom Cruise?s publicist. In a news announcement about the change I was
able to determine where Miss DeVette can be contacted:

This, for example, told me the name of the company Miss DeVette works for:

?Taking over Cruise control will be Tom's big sister, Lee Anne
DeVette, who has worked in publicity and marketing for Cruise's
Paramount-based production company, Cruise/Wagner.?

[?Wagner?, by the way, of Cruise/Wagner Productions (aka CW
Productions), is Paula Wagner, wife of one of Cruise?s agents, Rick
Nicita]

These two quotes indicate that DeVette still works for that company
and she is an insider as opposed to being contracted from an outside
agency as Kingsley was:

?During Kingsley's tenure fronting for Tom, DeVette has worked her way
up through the Cruise/Wagner ranks to become her brother's in-house
publicist, collaborating with movie studios on publicity campaigns for
several of Cruise's blockbusters, including The Last Samurai. She also
assisted Kingsley with other Cruise-related ventures outside
Hollywood.?

"It was something that was developing for a period of time," Kingsley
said. "And I think he wants to pull things internal [to his company].
It was a very friendly, nice chat, with no hard feelings. I have the
greatest respect for him in all areas."


E! ONLINE NEWS
?Cruise Cans Publicist?
http://moviefone.eonline.com/News/Items/0%2C1%2C13699%2C00.html?tnews

Cruise/Wagner Productions, and presumably Lee Anne DeVette, who works
for the company, can be contacted at:

Cruise/Wagner Productions
C/o Paramount Pictures 
5555 Melrose Ave. 
Los Angeles, CA  90038 
323-956-5000

Alternatively, you can obtain a directory for a fee that has the
latest contact information for Production Companies (of which Tom
Cruise's company is listed among them), agents, managers, publicists,
etc from SHOWBIZ LTD.:
