About the Guest Authors

From time to time, invited Guest Authors will be contributing to the discussion and sharing their insights into the world of publicity.  Guest Authors will include a Unit Publicist who works in Hollywood on some of the biggest movies made; entertainment publicists who have their own agencies; and perhaps business experts from the world of digital media.  Our hope is to collectively provide some basic knowledge, lessons learned, and best practices on publicity for film.

    Just one minor clarification. I worked on “Back to the Future II and III,” NOT the original “Back to the Future.” I never take credit for something I didn’t do…ever. Except for the light bulb invention. Yeah, that was mine…

    This is interesting…. flashback almost 18 years and I find myself working on a cruise line meeting two awesome fellows named Mike. They are quite witty, make all the casino girls laugh and for a few years afterwards, we exchange Holiday greetings. man I feel old. Is this the same M.K.? I hope this finds you smiling and doing well. It would be great to catch up! take care! Nancy
