My Memoirs |
January 26, 2007 1:14pm |
Many of you don't know that I work in a Talent Management Company for about 4-5 hours day Monday thru Friday. I don't actually work for the company, I used to before I quit. I quit to start Ekaweeka but I wanted my desk and to pretend that I was still a cool talent manager working in an office with a view of the hollywood sign. Well I still do have that view and I still do feel cool even though I spend alot of my day coding!
Anyways, the owner of the company is quite a character. He used to be part owner of The Gersh Agency and has similar connections to Innovative. Now he runs his boutique artist management company and has less to tout but none the less is quite interesting and has many "somewhat old hollywood esk" stories which I love to hear, he still barks on the phone at producers, casting directors, and agents. He has quite a temper and in every other way fits the agent profile.
So today I was sitting at my desk reading dear Simon's new blog Very Hot Jews and Brett (president of Ashy Agency) yells accross the building to David "do you know (fill in the famous producer in new york ladies name here)?" and "yes" David replies.
"How do you know her!?" Brett responded.
"Because I used to be a big shot in New York" David shot back, "would you like her home phone number?".
That was it. And maybe you had to be there to get it, but this was the funniest shit I have heard all week. I had to laugh out loud and told David that when I write my memoirs I will mention him and some of the things I've heard come out of his mouth. |
