Condoleeza Rice, Former Secretary of State, Inks Wide-Reaching Deal with William Morris Agency

Well, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has made a major step in her post-Bush administration career. The William Morris Agency announced yesterday that it has signed her as a client. Condi's got a brand new bag! Hah.

Condi inked a wide-ranging deal that will prove very lucrative. Although most other members of the Bush administration, including President Bush himself, except Karl Rove, might have trouble inking such a deal. She has reportedly found a strong market among talent agencies.

"It was certainly a competitive situation," said Jim Wiatt, chairman and CEO of the William Morris Agency. "She was very thorough about the process and who she would feel most comfortable with and who would be speaking on her behalf."

WMA co-chief operating officer Wayne Kabak said that the agency was struck not only by Rice's well-rounded resume. In addition to her political career, Rice is an accomplished concert pianist as well as a big-time National Football League fan. "It's more than just books, it's much more than just lectures," Kaback said. "We're here to help her create and enhance an agenda that is very important to her in her post-government career."
