DYLAN/MADONNA AGENT TO WRITE MEMOIR

BOB DYLAN and MADONNA's former talent manager JOAN HYLER has set out to write a memoir about her A-list clients - after recovering from a four-month coma following a near-fatal car accident.
Hyler sustained "severe and multiple injuries" after she was hit by a car on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, California on 15 August 2008.
She was thrown 25 feet in the air and airlifted to UCLA Medical Center with a collapsed lung, crushed pelvis and broken shoulder in addition to leg injuries.
Hyler accepted the Courage Award on Thursday (01Oct09) at the UCLA Neurosurgery Visionary Ball, following months gruelling rehabilitation work, through which she has relearned how to speak and walk.
Hyler's longtime clients Diane Lane, Alfred Molina, Amber Tamblyn, Amber Heard and Karen Allen were in attendance - and learned of her plans to chronicle her recovery in a memoir covering over 30 years as a talent manager and successful producer, reports Daily Variety.
Thanking her supporters, she told the crowd: "The community rallied around me, and it sustained me... New York was the epicenter of the business then, run by Scorsese, De Niro, Pacino, Streep. They are still around, and so am I."
