Neil Norman

Musician, engineer, producer, and record company executive. Son of [a=Gene Norman], currently President & CEO of [l=GNP Crescendo Record Co., Inc.]. Neil Norman was attracted to electronic music through his interest in Science Fiction films. This was the inspiration for producing and appearing on a series of "Greatest Science Fiction Hits" albums, collections from the most significant music from Sci-Fi films and TV series; performed by synthesizer ensembles and a full orchestra featuring many of the musicians who played on the original soundtracks. Neil studied film and music at U.C.L.A. His main avocation is scuba diving and has experimented with recording underwater-the closest earth equivalent to being in space.
