For what logical reason would a cookbook ghost writer come out and admit all the celeb chefs they've written cookbooks for, unless they wanted their careers to end?

Asked by jca (36062points) March 21st, 2012

I am reading NY Times articles written by a ghost writer (“I was a cookbook ghostwriter” 3/14/12, NY Times) where several cookbook ghost writers talk about all the celebrity chefs they ‘ve done ghost writing for. Rachel Ray, Gwyneth Paltrow, etc. The article states that since celebrity chefs put out cookbook after cookbook, in addition to their busy schedules, they can’t write the books themselves, so they employ ghost writers. No surprise, but why would anybody want to say that about the people who pay them money, unless they wanted their ghost writing careers to end?
