Michael Fishman(II)

Began working in TV production in November 1981 0n The Cerebral Palsy Telethon for Pasetta Productions. After the telethon I worked on The 54th Annual Academy Awards again for Pasetta Productions and the following year worked on The 55th Annual Academy Awards for Pasetta Productions. Right after the 54th Annual Academy Awards I began working for IN Productions, Inc. (1982-1985) (Lawrence O'daly, Executive Producer) on 'An Evening At The Improv', 'The Grand Prix All-Star Show' and a number of pilot programs. In 1984 I also began working for Pazzo Productions, Inc. (1984-1986)(Ron Joy, Executive Producer) on a variety of independent projects including 'Sammy: Love and Peace', a documentary on Sammy Davis, Jr. and a pilot program 'Cooking With Sonny', a cooking show with Sonny Bono.

In 1986 I began working for a small independent post production sound effects company on a number of films including Oliver Stone's 'Salvador'. The company suffered from financial difficulties and I then spent a few years in New York. Back to Los Angeles in 1989 I began working for a commercial special effects company (1989-1994). In 1994 I started working again in production working on an HBO film "The Enemy Within', a remake of the 1964 John Frankenheimer political thriller 'Seven Days In May'. Back in post production sound for SoundStorm, Inc. (1996-1997) I worked on a variety of films including the Academy Award winning film 'The Ghost And The Darkness'.
