FELD ENTERTAINMENT: NEW YORK TIMES PROFILE by Adam Bryant

Kenneth Feld:

“He said to me, ‘I don’t know anything about putting on a circus.’ I said, ‘I wouldn’t expect that you would.’

He said: ‘I don’t know anything about the entertainment business. I’ve never been in the entertainment business before. What I can tell you is, I love people. I love to mentor people. I love to get the most out of people and I’ll never lie to you. You’ll get the good, the bad, and the ugly.’ And about a week later, I hired him and that was it.

There’s a trust I have with him that is the same kind of trust that I had with my father and that I have with my daughters, and I think that’s the hardest thing to find — people you can absolutely trust. I don’t need people to give me good news. I mean they’re waiting in line to give you good news. I want people who can deliver the unvarnished truth to me.”
