Bernie Brillstein Quotes
Coming from the William Morris mailroom as I have, this book
is the truth of what I experienced, and it reminded me of all the
fun and craziness and fake drama that trained me for this
profession. It's hilarious, a bit crazy, and it should make anyone

make sure he or she reads this before starting at the bottom-
anywhere.
