Then the Phone Rang

Then the Phone Rang tells the story of a woman whose life, initially lacking direction, has been shaped by a series of unpredictable events since her early twenties. Sandy Pearl started her career in the entertainment industry in Los Angeles, fetching coffee and answering phones. Over the next twenty-three years, she worked her way up to doing publicity for Atlantic Records and various aspects of production in television, film, and commercials, culminating in a successful career as a producer of national television commercials-no knee pads were involved. On her journey, she met many famous and colorful characters who populated her world and formed relationships within and outside the industry-some good, others, not so much. This collection of real-life experiences blends light-hearted anecdotes, dark drama, tales of misadventure, riveting stories, and entertaining vignettes, with a twist of humor woven throughout. When the phone rings, you never know what it will bring.
