Book Description
When people discuss TV among themselves, the question which quite frequently arises is, How did this (insert your own adjective) show get on the air? Youll probably discover the answer inside this book. In the pages of this book are stories gathered from people who have lived their lives in either selling, producing or buying the programs which we all watch and which we love, hate or merely tolerate. What an enjoyable read. Backstage stories you never heard about show business personalities you thought you knew well, from the people who helped make them famous. Some of these authors sound like they are probably a book unto themselves. Cant wait for volume !
