Description

In this candid memoir, a legendary Hollywood agent and media executive recounts his unlikely ascent from a young man struggling with severe dyslexia to one of the entertainment industry’s most formidable power brokers. With sharp humor and cinematic detail, he revisits the deals, rivalries, triumphs, missteps, and high-stakes relationships that shaped his career and helped build a major talent agency. Alongside the glamour of representing celebrated artists and creators, he reflects on family, friendship, marriage, love, self-doubt, and the personal costs of relentless ambition. Fast, irreverent, and unsparing, the book offers both an insider’s view of show business and an inspiring meditation on resilience, reinvention, and learning to advocate for oneself.
