Who Is Michael Ovitz?

"Talent agent Michael Ovitz sat at the pinnacle of Hollywood power for some two decades, representing many of the biggest names in entertainment. Ovitz instilled fear among executives, agents, colleagues and friends. Then he disappeared from the public eye after a brief tenure at Disney. In Who Is Michael Ovitz?, Ovitz reemerges to dish about the TV and movie businesses during a period of cultural dominance. He offers a fascinating account of how he built Creative Artists Agency into a global juggernaut. The tone is controlled and the storytelling episodic. But there are poignant flashes of a man grappling with the consequences of the ruthless persona that he created."
