Growing up on a farm in rural Pennsylvania without boundaries may seem like a childhood idyll. But for Pam Butter, it was a twisted vision of pastoral family life part Faulkner part Dante. At fourteen years old, her desire to flee the abuse she suffered at the hands of her grandfather, she sought out her father, a man she only knew as Wild Bill. Upon realizing he wasn't the hero she'd hoped he'd be, she was on her own, trying to find normalcy in a life that seemed absurdly turned upside down.When Pam arrived in Los Angeles in the mid-70's, she could accurately be described as having nothing to lose. This was the peak of LA's decadence where money and drugs and good times flowed, but where young women were often seen as prey.Ultimately, she would find her calling in the entertainment industry and hold numerous high profile positions as a film executive. But survival was the only thing on her mind as she floated through a strange new world of champagne soaked parties, sexual adventures gone awry and much more.Imbued with candid and emotional self-revelations, Blind Pony is heartbreaking and somber, delightful and full of wisdom, joy, grit and grace. This is a personal memoir about the unlimited possibilities of the human spirit to survive and how hope can grow even in the darkest of places.
