Howard Kazanjian

Longtime friend and mentor Howard Kazanjian. Streets of Pasadena. Too much to tell about Howard's amazing life and contribution to film: Close friend of George Lucas from college, on; HK's  Lucasfilm producing and development in the early years, as VP, created cultural legends and icons . And more. Highly recommend Howard's detailed 2021 memoir , written with Star Wars historian J.W. Rinzler (excellent foreword by Marcia Lucas). If you dig cinema history at all, grab it. And Howard's personal books, highly accurate Westerns with Chris Enss, are also cool: large stories told with adventure and accuracy. Many thanks HK, for being one hell of a gent.
