Summary

He’s an author, film buff, publicist, and now the host of a web series called Locationland that brings us to the spots around Los Angeles where memorable movies were shot—fromGrease to Plan 9 From Outer Space. Harry is a lifelong cinephile lover who first made his mark writing about the worst movies of all time, which led to the Golden Turkey Awards—now reincarnated as the Razzies. He and Leonard shared the same career-defining book editor ages ago in New York City. They also share a fascination with finding the answers to questions about who shot what and where. You can learn more at pbssocal.org/Locationland orwww.locationland.net. Harry also works with the National Association of Theater Owners (formerly known as NATO) which, newly dubbed Cinema United, will be staging CinemaCon in Las Vegas the week of March 31.
