I'd heard plenty of things about producer Jon Peters since I moved here, but Nikki Finke, directly hooked in, heard them all and then some.

Now Peters is planning to come out with an autobiography. Nikki Finke's conclusion: "In all my time covering Hollywood, I have never read a more vile betrayal of everyone and everything in Hollywood by a showbiz figure than this proposal."

A bit harsh, perhaps, but she's got a lot of inside info--in fact, you wonder what's left for the book. The most surprising thing confirmed--Peters can't read.

PS Looks like all the attention got to him. He's still gonna write a book, but this particular proposal has been pulled.
