A two-minute bio?
Wow.
Well, maybe I'll try to condense it to under two minutes.
A 30-year career in television and film, mostly television.
Going back to the late 80s, early 90s on the studio side.
Then as an independent producer in the
early to mid-teens, and I've had two tech companies, and I've punched in a few times as a turnaround CEO for a few companies, so just keeping it at the high level there.
It was
Probably the funnest time in my career.
Second funnest time?
Prior to that, I was the head of production and finance at 20th Television at Fox.
And I left to go join Breonna Murray.
I had actually worked with them before.
They had come to Fox, and we worked with them to do a pilot.
And we got along very well, and they were just great.
I had heard later that they were looking for somebody like me or somebody to take the company to the next level.
And we had a mutual friend and their agent was this legendary Hollywood agent, was their agent.
He was also friendly with me and actually one of my biggest mentors.
And so we had a few meetings and they told me that they wanted to grow beyond where they were because at that time they had really just had real world and road rules.
And so I left my big, cushy studio job to go over there.
