Producer DAVID GEFFEN is founder and chairman of The Geffen Company, which has been a pre-eminent force in film, theatrical and record production for more than two decades.
He has released under his Geffen Pictures banner such films as "Personal Best," "Risky Business," "Lost in America," "Beetlejuice," "After Hours," "Little Shop of Horrors," "Men Don't Leave," "Defending Your Life," "The Last Boy Scout" and "M. Butterfly. " Geffen Theater's credits include "M. Butterfly" (which received nine Tony Awards, including Best Play) and such other mega-hits as "Cats," "Dreamgirls," "Little Shop of Horrors" and "Miss Saigon."
Geffen most recently announced, in partnership with Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg, the creation of a new studio that will produce film, television, music and interactive media products.
Co-producer REDMOND MORRIS has worked with Neil Jordan and Stephen Woolley since "The Miracle" in 1990, which Morris produced with Woolley, going on to "The Crying Game" in 1991. He was also associate producer on Woolley's Palace Pictures productions of "Scandal" and "The Big Man."
Born and raised in Ireland, Morris' interest in film was fueled by his father's collaboration with John Ford in an Irish-based company, which produced, among other films, "The Quiet Man." Working his way up from location manager and third assistant director (his early credits include "Yanks," "Agatha" and "Reds"), Morris became production manager on " Return of the Soldier, " " Secret Places " and " Gorky Park. " His other associate producer work includes "Map of the Human Heart," "December Bride," "Buster" and "Comrades. "
