Informações:

Synopsis

My favorite movies wouldn't exist without Michael Ovitz. Think: Jurassic Park, Ghostbusters, Schindler's List! But he believes "great projects always surface." So I had him tell me about all the projects he worked with. And the talent (Paul Newman, Robert Redford, Dan Aykroyd and more). He told me how he left the mailroom of one talent agency to start his own. Which THEN became the biggest talent agency in Hollywood, Creative Artists Agency (CAA). Later on, Michael went on to become the #2 guy at Disney. Now, he has a bestselling book called, "Who Is Michael Ovitz?"    Links & Resources: "Who Is Michael Ovitz?" by Michael Ovitz Follow Michael here: Instagram  Twitter  Facebook Also Mentioned: The Altucher Report GhostBusters Dan Aykroyd Schindler's List Jurassic Park Michael Crichton Steven Spielberg MGM Studios Gary Cooper Clark Gable Jennifer Lawrence Bill Murray Zoe Saldana The Hoffmans The Pacinos Robert Deniro Robert Redford Martin Scorsese Paul Newman Sidney Poitier Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Ki
