Hunting with Barracudas

Chris Snyder was Iris Burton's assistant for twenty years at the Iris Burton Talent Agency, which represented some of the brightest young stars in Hollywood: River and Joaquin Phoenix, Kirsten Dunst, Josh Hartnett, and many others. In "Hunting with Barracudas", Snyder basically complains about how awful life was with Burton all those years while never fully explaining why he kept working for her. He said a few times that she was "delightful" and had lots of great Hollywood stories, but all he relates is the bad stuff. I was left wondering why he didn't kill her in her sleep. I would have.
