Entertainment mogul Ari Emanuel is releasing his debut memoir, titled ‘Roll the Calls’, to be published by Knopf. The book provides an inside look at his career, from his early days working in the mailroom at Creative Artists Agency (CAA) to his current roles as the head of WME Group and chairman of TKO Group Holdings Inc., which owns UFC and WWE.

Emanuel, who served as the real-life inspiration for the character Ari Gold in the television series ‘Entourage’, discusses his professional trajectory, high-stakes corporate maneuvers, and the management of a client roster that includes figures such as Denzel Washington, Adele, Billie Eilish, and Martin Scorsese. The memoir also touches on personal themes, including his experience navigating severe dyslexia and his competitive nature.
