Harris has starred in six feature films and has the varied background of having been a State Golden Gloves winning boxer. Other principles include Actor-International Film Expert Ron Gilbert, Filmmaker-Musician Mark David, Producer-Publicist Don Franken, Producer Tony Hewett, and Actor-Producer Jack Rubio. Our goals are to continue to find ways to make the films we believe in as artists and to help other special films find a chance in an increasingly difficult market for indie film.
