The Hollywood Chronicles Of A Female Tech Founder (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789083667201)

The Hollywood Chronicles of a Female Tech Founder is N.D. Zerman's unfiltered memoir of building ScriptBook AI over seven years inside an industry that sells dreams and punishes disruption. Hollywood doesn't fear technology-it fears exposure. Innovation is welcomed only when it protects existing power and buried the moment it exposes flawed judgement or fragile myths.

Shuttling between venture capital boardrooms and studio backlots, Zerman pulls back the curtain on two parallel ecosystems built on the same rules: backstabbing disguised as networking, exclusion justified as instinct, and a ruthless hierarchy that rewards loyalty over truth.

In both Hollywood and venture capital, funding flows not to what works-but to who controls the narrative. For a woman founder, the margin for survival is narrow: conform, diminish, or disappear. This is not a startup success story. It is a firsthand account of what happens when a woman brings disruptive technology into a Hollywood sustained by delusion.
