Unless you are willing to drop everything and come to NY at a moment's notice for an audition, don't submit to NY agents. Most would not take you unless you are nearby anyway.

Submit to the agents in Pittsburgh. I have a friend who does alot of commerical work in Pittsburgh.

To work in a major market like NY or LA, you need to live very close to those areas. I have had agents call me at 12pm and ask me to go to an audition that same day at 3pm.

Hope this helps!
