Breaking into the entertainment biz is not all “Lights! Camera! Action!” – and Hire Me, Hollywood!: Your Behind-the-Scenes Guide to the Most Exciting - and Unexpected - Jobs in Show Business will give you the inside scoop from craft service to the director's chair - and every take in between.

What does it take to make it in Hollywood? 

Entertainment insiders Mark Scherzer and Keith Fenimore provide not just a “how to”, but a “how did”, with a candid look at thirty people from across the entertainment industry at the top of their game as producers, actors, editors and more. 

Hire Me, Hollywood! is here to give you a crash course in all things Hollywood through thirty sometimes funny, occasionally racy, and always revealing interviews with such industry experts as:

  • Ryan Randall, Hair Stylist/Makeup Artist (American Idol)
  • Sam Trammell, Actor (Sam Merlotte on HBO's True Blood)
  • Paula Davis, Senior Talent Executive (Conan O'Brien)
  • Mark Steines, Cohost (Entertainment Tonight)

  • Cecilia Cardwell, On-Set Tutor (Titanic, Little Miss Sunshine, No Ordinary Family)
  • Michael Gelman, Executive Producer (Live! with Regis and Kelly)

Whether you've always dreamed of yelling "Action" on a major movie set or you'd be thrilled just to get Matthew McConaughey his morning coffee, this book will give you inside scoop from craft service to the director's chair--and every take in between.
