Books

Masters is the author of The Keys to the Kingdom: The Rise of Michael Eisner and the Fall of Everybody Else.[2][3] Entertainment Weekly gave the book a mixed review, calling it a "lacerating, 450-page takedown," but also writing that it contains "way too much inside baseball to anybody outside the New York-Los Angeles media axis."[4]

Masters and Nancy Griffin co-authored Hit & Run: How Jon Peters and Peter Guber Took Sony for a Ride in Hollywood. Publishers Weekly called the book "a shocking read that will have readers gasping at the obscene overindulgence of Hollywood."[5]
