Germany, Businesswoman September 2, 1932 – October, 15, 2011.
Sue Mengers was a talent agent for many significant filmmakers and actors of the New Hollywood generation of the 1960s, 1970s and early 1980s.
A powerful studio boss doesn't want to be bested by a woman, even in chess. And a successful agent steps on a lot of toes. You lose actors jobs so you can get them for your own clients.
As an agent, I functioned like a guy. But the fact that I was a woman affected everything.
Stars are rare creatures, and not everyone can be one. But there isn't anyone on earth - not you, not me, not the girl next door - who wouldn't like to be a movie star holding up that gold statuette on Academy Award night.
