Personal History:

In June of 1977, three months before turning 12, Michael began his career as a projectionist at a 3-screen, 1,500 car drive-in theatre. There he would begin to learn the skills that would lead him on his path for years to come.

Michael learned many elementary and necessary processes during his humble beginning, including:

• Inspecting and repairing acetate film, including second run prints to be run as the second feature.
• Building up the preview and snack bar trailers.
• Performing repairs on speakers and junction boxes necessary for delivering audio.
