Over the course of three decades I’ve interviewed close to 500 movie and entertainment individuals: writers, directors, and on-screen performers. This was the first time I’ve interviewed the CEO of a major entertainment company.

Bill Abbott is the current president and CEO of Great American Media (GAM) and Pure Flix, companies specializing in family and faith-based entertainment. Prior to GAM, Abbott was the CEO of Crown Media, the parent company of the Hallmark Channel.
