About this title

Synopsis:

Wendy Walker is one of those invisible forces who has shaped our perception of the world. For the past seventeen years she has been the 'woman behind the man', at Larry King Live. As Larry's Senior Executive Producer she has been responsible for landing the exclusive interviews with the most important newsmakers and well-known celebrities from around the globe that have been the hallmark of CNN's number 1 show. While she may have been unseen and unrecognized, Wendy's work has shaped all of our lives. She has arranged some of the most iconic interviews of our time. For example, she orchestrated the 1993 NAFTA debate between Vice President Al Gore and Ross Perot; which remains, to this day, one of the highest rated programmes in cable television history.

Starting as a secretary at ABC some 30 years ago, Wendy has climbed up the male-dominated world of television production. Her passion and work ethic are undeniable, but it has always been her heart that has been her guide. And it's with the same zeal and loving spirituality that she shares her life in this remarkable memoir.

Review:

PRODUCER is a riveting, engaging account of the world of television by a first rate, high powered and seasoned producer. Wendy shares inspiring insights and gives empowering advice. If you want to understand the media world...this is a must read! (Deepak Chopra)
