The Operator: David Geffen Builds, Buys, and Sells the New Hollywood

What a guy. What a story. Do watch him on You Tube'

I once read that unauthorised biographies often get closer to the truth than authorised ones. Unfortunately we the reader are never sure. David Geffen is without a doubt very successful, but according to this book at great cost. It took me only five days to read it, simply because the subject matter was so fascinating that I had to pick it up at every opportunity and continue to read. It focuses on a subject and timescale that is interesting to many of my age group (65 year olds) music, film, television, history, the star maker machine and politics. Well written because, it doesn't get bogged down and the narrative flows. Recommended.

Fantastic book! Such a Machiavellan like character. His ambition and character might not be for everyone but for the ambitious type there is a lot to learn from David Geffen.

Can't put this book down. So interesting!!!
