Fall Membership Event with George Parra

11/6/11

Location: Sheraton Society Hill Hotel

Featured guest George Parra, an accomplished Assistant Director and Producer, has worked on over 50 feature films covering all genres from big action films such as Terminator 2, The Rock, and XXX as well as working on studio classics such as Ghost, The Mask of Zorro and On Any Given Sunday. His success came from smaller, more independent films, which have always been more appealing to him, such as Election, Sideways and The Descendants.

Mr. Parra has collaborated both as an Assistant Director and now as a Producer, with directors including Alexander Payne, Peter Yates, Oliver Stone, James Cameron, Michael Bay, Rob Cohen, Martin Campbell, David Ellis and more.

Now a member of the Producers Guild of America, Mr. Parra has been steadily producing a number of films for various companies as well as developing his own projects. This year, he has been involved with feature films Warrior and the upcoming The Descendants. Mr. Parra is currently an Executive Producer on the feature film The Silver Linings Playbook starring Bradley Cooper, Robert DeNiro and Jennifer Lawrence, which is currently filming in Philadelphia. The movie is directed by David O. Russell.
