Steve’s first job in Hollywood was working as an assistant film editor for Roger & Gene Corman, followed by two and a half years as Orson Welle’s film editor. From 1977-1980, Steve became the king of tax shelter TV and produced 540 half-hour, multi-camera episodes of a variety of musical, comedic, kids’, and documentary series that appeared in first-run syndication and early cable TV. He directed over half of these shows. One of his biggest challenges was to product five original, feature-length films under the Creature Features banner in six months of production time for HBO/Screen Gems/Sony. The films - She Creature, Day the World Ended, How to Make a Monster, Earth vs. The Spider, and Teenage Caveman - featured creatures from four-time Academy Award winner Stan Winston, and starred actors such as Dan Akroyd, Randy Quaid, and Nastassja Kinski. He also produced a trio of films for Warner Home Video under the Raw Feed banner, Otis, Rest Stop II, and Alien Raiders, and two films in New Mexico for Odd Lot Entertainment, Wanted: Undead or Alive and Organizm.

Steve authored the book, So You Wanna Be A Producer? which is being used in dozens of film schools around the country.
