Special Livestream Halloween Event with Legendary Music Figures Shep Gordon and Alice Cooper
Sold Out Talk between Former Über-Agent and Client to Be Presented Live on Facebook
This lively, behind-the-scenes look at the worlds of music and entertainment from the consummate Hollywood insider will be available through Facebook Livestream on Monday, October 31, 2016 at 8:00pmPT on the Live Talks Los Angeles page.
Shep Gordon shares stories of his business and personal experiences with some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry in "They Call Me Supermensch: A Backstage Pass to the Amazing Worlds of Film, Food, and Rock’n’Roll" (Anthony Bourdain/Ecco, September 16, 2016). Clients include Alice Cooper, Jimi Hendrix, Sylvester Stallone, Salvador Dalí, Luther Vandross and Teddy Pendergrass. He is also credited with inventing the “celebrity chef,” and has worked with Nobu Matsuhisa, Emeril Lagasse, Wolfgang Puck, Roger Vergé, and many others.
"Supermensch" is an eye-popping peek into entertainment industry from the magnetic force who has worked with an impeccable roster of stars throughout his long career. In this engaging memoir, Gordon recalls his life, from his humble beginnings as a “Jewish nebbisher kid with no ambition” in Oceanside, Long Island, to his unexpected rise as one of the most influential and respected personalities in show business, revered for his kindness, charisma—and fondness for a good time.
Publishers Weekly says, “At a time when people feel compelled to revel in and share their excesses… it’s refreshing to find a story in which the search for meaning trumps the search for mischief.” Actor Michael Douglas calls "Supermensch" “[Gordon’s] joyful, soulful, and hilarious account of how he found some purpose for his own life.”
