Eric Rice a.k.a Spin Martin wrote a brilliant article on FastCompany.com discussing an overview of the real world talent of the people not only taking place in Second Life, but taking place as real life careers; 8 specific SL professional careers in fact.

This exposure has led to artists like Grace performing in venues around the country in real life. Club DJs are also part of the mix, performing nightly to enthusiastic crowds of club-going avatars, like East Coast DJ Brad Reason, who performs full time—virtually—as a club DJ as Doubledown Tandino for large and small venues alike."
