‘Deep Throat’ Felt signs agency

“Deep Throat” has signed with Creative Artists Agency. The family of W. Mark Felt, the former No. 2 man at the FBI who admitted last week that he was the mysterious well-placed source for Washington Post coverage of President Nixon’s Watergate cover-up, has signed for representation with an eye toward developing a movie or TV project, the Beverly Hills-based talent agency confirmed Tuesday.

The arrangement includes John O’Connor, the author of the Vanity Fair article that revealed Felt’s role in the stories that led eventually to Nixon’s resignation, and CAA is working with literary agent David Kuhn on packaging a deal.
