About the Book

The Hollywood Food Chain tells the outlandishly hilarious war stories of what it takes to be a Production Assistant to the industry’s biggest egomaniacs. Although the job title is a vague one at best, the show could not go on without the hard work of these underpaid, under-appreciated individuals. Without Production Assistants, who would smoke the actress’ cigarettes halfway because her guru told her it was paramount to her aura? Who would quiet an entire neighborhood full of dogs with a box of dog biscuits so the actor could nurse a hangover? Who would field calls from life-threatening fans? Who would rid a tree-lined neighborhood of its birds in the middle of spring so the actor wouldn’t be distracted from his performance? At whom would the producer throw pepperoni slices in the heat of a mental breakdown? Welcome to the wildly hilarious and downright strange world of Production Assistant hell.


About the Author

She now enjoys the simpler joys of life by locking herself in her office and finding ways to irritate her own assistants.
