In Call My Publicist! – The Starry Education of a Broadway Press Agent, Joshua Ellis, who was one of the theater’s top press agents, gives an insider’s view of the glamorous and sometimes maddening world of The Great White Way, from a vantage point the public rarely sees. With his very personal, first-hand stories, we hear about Yul Brynner, Carol Channing, Stephen Sondheim, Lena Horne, David Merrick, Frank Langella, Eartha Kitt, Eva Le Gallienne, Arthur Miller, Richard Rodgers, Sandy Duncan, and numerous other theater greats with whom Ellis worked and learned the tricks of the trade. Among the shows he publicized are the original Broadway productions of Into the Woods, 42ND Street, Fences, The Elephant Man, The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby, Lena Horne: The Lady and Her Music, Big River, and the award-winning revivals of The King and I (Yul Brynner), Dracula (Frank Langella), Peter Pan (Sandy Duncan) and Morning’s at Seven. Call My Publicist! – The Starry Education of a Broadway Press Agent is about a love affair with the New York theatre, and like all romances it has its share of joys and heartbreaks.

Peter Marks of The Washington Post cheered, “Call My Publicist! is wildly entertaining. I loved it."

Michael Riedel, author of the best-sellers “Razzle Dazzle” and “Singular Sensation,” exclaimed, “Call My Publicist! is brilliant. I loved every minute of it."
